Cumulant-free closed-form formulas for some common similarities between densities of an exponential family

It is well-known that the Bhattacharyya, Hellinger, Kullback-Leibler, $\alpha$-divergences, and Jeffreys' divergences between densities belonging to a same exponential family have generic closed-form formulas relying on the strictly convex and real-analytic cumulant function characterizing the exponential family. In this work, we report (dis)similarity formulas which bypass the explicit use of the cumulant function and highlight the role of quasi-arithmetic means and their multivariate mean operator extensions. In practice, these cumulant-free formulas are handy when implementing these (dis)similarities using legacy Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) since our method requires only to partially factorize the densities canonically of the considered exponential family.
