Law Of Small Numbers

• the specific features of the Poisson distribution, as in the book The Law of Small Numbers by Ladislaus Bortkiewicz;

• the tendency for an initial segment of data to show some bias that drops out later (one example in number theory being the Kummer conjecture on cubic Gauss sums);

• the occurrence of mathematical coincidences that are no more than some expression of a pigeonhole principle.
