Abstract
He and Xia (1997, Stochastic Processes Appl. 68, pp. 101–111) gave some error bounds for a Wasserstein distance between the distributions of the partial sum process of a Markov chain and a Poisson point process on the positive half-line. However, all these bounds increase logarithmically with the mean of the Poisson point process. In this paper, using the coupling method and a general deep result for estimating the errors of Poisson process approximation in Brown and Xia (2001, Ann. Probab. 29, pp. 1373–1403), we give a new error bound for the above Wasserstein distance. In contrast to the previous results of He and Xia (1997), our new error bound has no logarithm anymore and it is bounded and asymptotically remains constant as the mean increases.
