Uncertainty principle is one of the cornerstones of quantum theory. In the literature, there are two types of uncertainty relations, the operator form concerning the variances of physical observables and the entropy form related to entropic…
Several models of quantum gravity predict the emergence of a minimal length at Planck scale. This is commonly taken into consideration by modifying the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle into the Generalized Uncertainty Principle. In this…
Recently, universally valid uncertainty relations have been established to set a precision limit for any instruments given a disturbance constraint in a form more general than the one originally proposed by Heisenberg. One of them leads to…
In this paper, we establish the Cowling--Price's, Hardy's and Morgan's uncertainty principles for the Opdam-Cherednik transform on modulation spaces associated with this transform. The proofs of the theorems are based on the properties of…
Heisenberg uncertainty principle describes a basic restriction on observer's ability of precisely predicting the measurement for a pair of non-commuting observables, and virtually is at the core of quantum mechanics. We herein aim to study…
In this paper we uses an I.I. Hirschman-W. Beckner entropy argument to give an uncertainty inequality for the $q$-Bessel Fourier transform: $$ \mathcal{F}_{q,v}f(x)=c_{q,v}\int_{0}^{\infty}f(t)j_{v}(xt,q^{2})t^{2v +1}d_{q}t, $$ where…
In this short paper a new thought experiment has been introduced to illustrate the famous Heisenberg's uncertainty principle based on Otto-Wiener's experiment (1890) associated with standing light waves. This illustration is quite easy as…
In this paper we look at a particular realization of Popper's thought experiment with correlated quantum particles and argue that, from the point of view of a nonlinear quantum physics and contrary to the orthodox interpretation,…
The celebrated Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle \Delta x \Delta p\ge \hbar/2 can allow measurement accuracies less than \Delta x or \Delta p. Classical analog of this is known as sub-Fourier sensitivity. We illustrate this phenomenon in a…
We extend an uncertainty principle due to Beurling into a characterization of Hermite functions. More precisely, all functions $f$ on $\R^d$ which may be written as $P(x)\exp (Ax,x)$, with $A$ a real symmetric definite positive matrix, are…
The following question was proposed by Avi Wigderson and Yuval Wigderson: Is it possible to use the method in their paper(The uncertainty principle: variations on a theme) to prove Heisenberg uncertainty principle in higher dimension R^d,…
In this paper we critically analyse W. Heisenberg's arguments against the ontology of point particles following trajectories in quantum theory, presented in his famous 1927 paper and in his Chicago lectures (1929). Along the way, we will…
We investigate the fractional dispersion of solutions to the Helmholtz equation with periodic scattering data. We show that, under appropriate rescaling, the interaction between the different frequencies exhibits the same fluctuating…
Within the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle it is explicitly discussed the impact of these inequalities on the theory of integrated photonics at sub-wavelength regime. More especially, the uncertainty of the effective index values in…
The Principle of Maximum Entropy is a rigorous technique for estimating an unknown distribution given partial information while simultaneously minimizing bias. However, an important requirement for applying the principle is that the…
The purpose of this article is to extend the wavelet transform to quaternion algebra using the kernel of the two-sided quaternion Fourier transform (QFT). We study some fundamental properties of this extension such as scaling, translation,…
We generalize Lindeberg's proof of the central limit theorem to an invariance principle for arbitrary smooth functions of independent and weakly dependent random variables. The result is applied to get a similar theorem for smooth functions…
We obtain several versions of the Hausdorff-Young and Hardy-Littlewood inequalities for the $(k,a)$-generalized Fourier transform recently investigated at length by Ben Sa\"i d, Kobayashi, and {\O} rsted. We also obtain a number of weighted…
We give a new proof of Hardy's uncertainty principle, up to the end-point case, which is only based on calculus. The method allows us to extend Hardy's uncertainty principle to Schr\"odinger equations with non-constant coefficients. We also…
Since their discovery in 1927, the Heisenberg Inequalities have become an icon of quantum mechanics. Often inappropriately referred to as the Uncertainty Principle, these inequalities relating the standard deviations of the position and…
