By analogy to the terminology of curved exponential families in statistics, we define curved Bregman divergences as Bregman divergences restricted to non-affine parameter subspaces and sub-dimensional Bregman divergences when the restrictions are affine. A common example of curved Bregman divergence is the cosine dissimilarity between normalized vectors: a curved squared Euclidean divergence. We prove that the barycenter of a finite weighted set of parameters under a curved Bregman divergence amounts to the right Bregman projection onto the non-affine subspace of the barycenter with respect to the full Bregman divergence, and interpret a generalization of the weighted Bregman centroid of $n$ parameters as a $n$-fold sub-dimensional Bregman divergence. We demonstrate the significance of curved Bregman divergences with several examples: (1) symmetrized Bregman divergences, (2) pointwise symmetrized Bregman divergences, and (3) the Kullback-Leibler divergence between circular complex normal distributions. We explain how to reparameterize sub-dimensional Bregman divergences on simplicial sub-dimensional domains. We then consider monotonic embeddings to define representational curved Bregman divergences and show that the $α$-divergences are representational curved Bregman divergences with respect to $α$-embeddings of the probability simplex into the positive measure cone. As an application, we report an efficient method to calculate the intersection of a finite set of $α$-divergence spheres.
