Abstract
An asymptotically finite bound is derived for the total variation dist ance between the distribution of N(t) and the Poisson distribution wit h mean EN(t) when N is a simple point process whose interpoint times a re exponential with means determined by an ergodic, finite-state Marko v chain and when it is a Cox process with a stationary, irreducible, f inite-state continuous-time Markov chain for intensity.
