Time averaging of weak values using the quantum transition path time probability distribution enables us to establish a general uncertainty principle for the weak values of two not necessarily Hermitian operators. This new principle is a…
In the present work the role that a generalized uncertainty principle could play in the quantization of the electromagnetic field is analyzed. It will be shown that we may speak of a Fock space, a result that implies that the concept of…
The time-frequency uncertainty principle states that the product of the temporal and frequency extents of a signal cannot be smaller than $1/(4\pi)$. We study human ability to simultaneously judge the frequency and the timing of a sound.…
In a prior paper, the author described an instability in a nonlinear wavefunction model. Proposed in connection with the Measurement Problem, the model contained an external potential creating a ``classical'' instability. However, it is…
In the conventional formulation, it is broadly accepted that simultaneous measurability and commutativity of observables are equivalent. However, several objections have been claimed that there are cases in which even nowhere commuting…
We present a formulation of the generalised uncertainty principle based on commutator $\left[ {\hat x}^i, {\hat p}_j \right]$ between position and momentum operators defined in a covariant manner using normal coordinates. We show how any…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle implies fundamental constraints on what properties of a quantum system can we simultaneously learn. However, it typically assumes that we probe these properties via measurements at a single point in time.…
Various theories of quantum gravity predict the existence of a minimum length scale, which leads to the modification of the standard uncertainty principle to the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP). In this paper, we study two forms of…
The entropic uncertainty principle as outlined by Maassen and Uffink for a pair of non-degenerate observables in a finite level qusystem is generalized here to the case of a pair of arbitrary quantum measurements. In particular, our result…
One of the formulations of Heisenberg uncertainty principle, concerning so-called measurement uncertainty, states that the measurement of one observable modifies the statistics of the other. Here, we derive such a measurement uncertainty…
We review versions of the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) obtained in string theory and in gedanken experiments carried out in Quantum Gravity. We show how a GUP can be derived from a measure gedanken experiment involving…
The windowed offset linear canonical transform (WOLCT) can be identified as a generalization of the windowed linear canonical transform (WLCT). In this paper, we generalize several different uncertainty principles for the WOLCT, including…
These lecture notes are devoted to selected topics related to the uncertainty principle in harmonic analysis. Rather than attempting a systematic treatment, we emphasize only a number of both classical and deep manifestations of this…
In the first part of this two-part article, we have introduced and analyzed a multidimensional model, called the 'general tension-reduction' (GTR) model, able to describe general quantum-like measurements with an arbitrary number of…
Starting from considerations about meaning and subsequent use of asymmetric uncertainty intervals of experimental results, we review the issue of uncertainty propagation. We show that, using a probabilistic approach (the so-called Bayesian…
Following to the Weil method we generalize the Heisenberg-Robertson uncertainty relation for arbitrary two operators. Consideration is made in spherical coordinates, where the distant variable is restricted from one side, . By this reason…
We investigate the quintessence scalar field model modified by the Generalized Uncertainty Principle in the background of a spatially flat homogeneous and isotropic universe. By performing a dynamical system analysis we examine the nature…
Under the classical long-span asymptotic framework we develop a class of Generalized Laplace (GL) inference methods for the change-point dates in a linear time series regression model with multiple structural changes analyzed in, e.g., Bai…
By examining two counterexamples to the existing theory, it is shown, with mathematical rigor, that as far as scattered particles are concerned the true distribution function is in principle not determinable (indeterminacy principle or…
The role of the Uncertainty Principle is examined through the examples of squeezing, information capacity, and position monitoring. It is suggested that more attention should be directed to conceptual considerations in quantum information…
