In general, the Bregman divergence induced by log-normalizer of an exponential
family amounts to a reverse Kullback–Leibler divergence [19]. Notice that the nonseparable log-normalizer of a multinomial family yields a nice example of a nonseparable Bregman divergence. The multinoulli manifold is called the Bernoulli
manifold when D = 1 (i.e., d = 2), and the trinoulli manifold when D = 2 (i.e.,
d = 3).

7.3.1 Geodesic ∇-Triangles with One Interior Right Angle
To build a geodesic ∇-triangle with a right angle, fix two points p and q (i.e., the
first two triangle vertices), and consider the location of the third triangle vertex point
r such that γ qr ⊥ q γ qp (i.e., ˙
γ qr (0) ⊥ q ˙
