We report a closed-form expression for the Kullback-Leibler divergence between Cauchy distributions which involves the calculation of a novel definite integral. The formula shows that the Kullback-Leibler divergence between Cauchy densities is always finite and symmetric.
💡 Research Summary
**
The paper presents a complete closed‑form expression for the Kullback‑Leibler (KL) divergence between two Cauchy probability densities, each characterized by a location parameter (l) and a scale parameter (s). The authors start by recalling the standard Cauchy density
