Abstract: This is an expository article on the Poisson binomial distribution. We review lesser known results and recent progress on this topic, including geometry of polynomials and distribution learning. We also provide examples to illustrate the use of the Poisson binomial machinery. Some open questions of approximating rational fractions of the Poisson binomial are presented.
