Properties of a Generalized Divergence Related to Tsallis Relative Entropy (1810.09503v2)

Published 22 Oct 2018 in cs.IT and math.IT

Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the partition inequality, joint convexity, and Pinsker's inequality, for a divergence that generalizes the Tsallis Relative Entropy and Kullback-Leibler divergence. The generalized divergence is defined in terms of a deformed exponential function, which replaces the Tsallis $q$-exponential. We also constructed a family of probability distributions related to the generalized divergence. We found necessary and sufficient conditions for the partition inequality to be satisfied. A sufficient condition for the joint convexity was established. We proved that the generalized divergence satisfies the partition inequality, and is jointly convex, if, and only if, it coincides with the Tsallis relative entropy. As an application of partition inequality, a criterion for the Pinsker's inequality was found.
