Abstract
We consider two (natural) families of observables for systems with dimension : the spin observables , and , and the observables that have mutually unbiased bases as eigenstates. We derive tight entropic uncertainty relations for these families, in the form , where is the Shannon entropy of the measurement outcomes of and is a constant. We show that most of our bounds are stronger than previously known ones. We also give the form of the states that attain these inequalities.
