On power chi expansions of $f$-divergences

Abstract

We consider both finite and infinite power chi expansions of $f$-divergences derived from Taylor's expansions of smooth generators, and elaborate on cases where these expansions yield closed-form formula, bounded approximations, or analytic divergence series expressions of $f$-divergences.
