We consider square-integrable functionals of Poisson point processes for which the variance upper bound provided by the classical Poincar\'{e} inequality is suboptimal, a phenomenon known as superconcentration. In this paper, we establish a…

We use the Stein-Chen method to obtain compound Poisson approximations for the distribution of the number of subgraphs in a generalised stochastic block model which are isomorphic to some fixed graph. This model generalises the classical…
