You have to use the backslash-paren notation, or backslash-bracket notation.

this is inline: B( x^2 B)

this is display mode:
B[ x^2 B]

Actually replace “B” with a single backslash. These then become:

this is inline: \(x^2\)

this is display mode:
\[ x^2 \]

This usually happens the first time anyone uses MathJax on a blog. There’s some way to fix it, but I haven’t used MathJax myself so I can’t tell you the solution.

I was hoping to nerd out about some of my favorite things about the KL divergence.
