Measurement Uncertainty Relations for Position and Momentum: Relative Entropy Formulation
Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle has recently led to general measurement uncertainty relations for quantum systems: incompatible observables can be measured jointly or in sequence only with some unavoidable approximation, which can be quantified in various ways. The relative entropy is the natural theoretical quantifier of the information loss when a ‘true’ probability distribution is replace...
متن کاملVariance-based uncertainty relations for incompatible observables
We formulate uncertainty relations for arbitrary finite number of incompatible observables. Based on the sum of variances of the observables, both Heisenberg-type and Schrödinger-type uncertainty relations are provided. These new lower bounds are stronger in most of the cases than the ones derived from some existing inequalities. Detailed examples are presented. [email protected] sophyc21@163...
متن کاملMeasurement Uncertainty for Finite Quantum Observables
Measurement uncertainty relations are lower bounds on the errors of any approximate joint measurement of two or more quantum observables. The aim of this paper is to provide methods to compute optimal bounds of this type. The basic method is semidefinite programming, which we apply to arbitrary finite collections of projective observables on a finite dimensional Hilbert space. The quantificatio...
متن کاملSum uncertainty relations for arbitrary N incompatible observables
We formulate uncertainty relations for arbitrary N observables. Two uncertainty inequalities are presented in terms of the sum of variances and standard deviations, respectively. The lower bounds of the corresponding sum uncertainty relations are explicitly derived. These bounds are shown to be tighter than the ones such as derived from the uncertainty inequality for two observables [Phys. Rev....
متن کاملUncertainty Relations and Time-Frequency Distributions for Unsharp Observables
This paper deals with a new framework in analyzing the formal mathematical correspondence between quantum mechanics and time-frequency representations of a signal. It is also shown that joint time-frequency distributions have a close link with Heisenberg uncertainty relations if the observables are taken as fuzzy entities. This result contradicts the arguments of Cohen [IEEE Proc. 77(7):941 (19...
