Hyperuniform particle arrangements are characterized by a local number variance that grows more slowly than the volume of the observation window. We generalize this concept to describe particle systems in which particles carry weights:…

Probability theory is far from being the most general mathematical theory of uncertainty. A number of arguments point at its inability to describe second-order ('Knightian') uncertainty. In response, a wide array of theories of uncertainty…

Nonlocality is a distinctive feature of quantum theory, which has been extensively studied for decades. It is found that the uncertainty principle determines the nonlocality of quantum mechanics. Here we show that various degrees of…

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle (HUP) limits the accuracy in the simultaneous measurements of the position and momentum variables of any quantum system. This is known to be true in the context of non-relativistic quantum mechanics.…

We show that a deformation of the Heisenberg algebra which depends on a dimensionful parameter $\kappa$ is the algebraic structure which underlies the generalized uncertainty principle in quantum gravity. The deformed algebra and therefore…

The quantum-mechanical framework in which observables are associated with Hermitian operators is too narrow to discuss measurements of such important physical quantities as elapsed time or harmonic-oscillator phase. We introduce a broader…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group, and let $\widehat{G}$ denote its dual group, equipped with a Haar measure. A variant of the uncertainty principle states that for any $S \subset G$ and $\Sigma \subset \widehat{G}$, there exists a…

It has been proposed that on (anti)-de Sitter background, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle should be modified by the introduction of a term proportional to the cosmological constant. We show that this modification of the uncertainty…
