Bounds on the derivatives of the log-cumulative distribution function of the multivariate normal distribution

Potanin B., Dolgikh S., Statistics and Probability Letters 2027 Article 110984

These bounds scale linearly and quadratically in ‖x‖ , respectively, with constants depending only on the covariance matrix. We demonstrate the usefulness of these bounds by proving asymptotic normality of the maximum-likelihood estimator of the multivariate probit ...
