Geometric count frequency ratio. This original derived actuarial relation uses the parameter restrictions, endpoints and units stated in the separate formal theorem or definition.

Mathematical relation:

pnPoi=e−λλnn!p_n^{\mathrm{Poi}}=e^{-\lambda}\frac{\lambda^n}{n!}

The particular Lean formula is a new finite/real-algebraic formalisation and remains an unproved theorem target if labelled theorem.
