On the property of multivariate generalized hyperbolic distribution and the Stein-type inequality

This note consists of two parts . In the first part, we provide a pedagogic review on the multivariate generalized hyperbolic (MGH) distribution. We show that this probability family is close under margining, conditioning, and linear transforms; however, such property does not hold for its subclasses. In the second part, we obtain the Stein-type inequality in the context of MGH distribution. Moreover, we apply the Stein-type inequality to prove a lower bound for Varh(X)]. Particularly, we present examples when X belongs to some well-known subclasses in MGH family.
