Let G be a finite abelian group, and let f : G → C be a complex function on G. The uncertainty principle asserts that the support supp(f) := {x ∈ G : f(x) 6= 0} is related to the support of the Fourier transform f̂ : G → C by the formula |supp(f)||supp(f̂)| ≥ |G| where |X| denotes the cardinality of X. In this note we show that when G is the cyclic group Z/pZ of prime order p, then we may improve...
