We will develop in the following a particular extension of the well-known Poisson approximation of binomial distributions with a small hitting probability, which is known as the law of small numbers. This extension, which one might call functional laws of small numbers, links such seemingly different topics like non-parametric regression analysis and extreme value theory.
