Question:

1.9 Let X1,...,Xn be iid according to the Poisson distribution P(λ) and let λ have a gamma distribution H(g, α).

(a) For squared error loss, show that the Bayes estimator δα,g of λ has a representation analogous to (1.1.13).

(b) What happens to δα,g as (i) n → ∞, (ii) α → ∞, g → 0, or both?
