Abstract
The binary divergences that are divergences between probability measures defined on the same 2-point set have an interesting property. For the chi-squared divergence and the relative entropy, it is known that their binary divergence attain lower bounds with given means and variances, respectively. In this note, we show that the binary divergence of the squared Hellinger distance has the same property and propose an open problem that what conditions are needed for f-divergence to satisfy this property.
