This work shows that in the frame of the stochastic generalization of the quantum hydrodynamic analogy (QHA) the uncertainty principle can be derived by the postulate of finite transmission speed of light and information . The theory shows…
The possibility of variations of the values of fundamental constants is a phenomenon predicted by a number of scenarios beyond General Relativity. This can happen if ``our'' fundamental constants are not the actual constants of the…
This note shows that Heisenberg's choice for a wave function in his original paper on the uncertainty principle is simply a renormalized characteristic function of a stable distribution with certain restrictions on the parameters. Relaxing…
We study the fractal uncertainty principle in the joint time-frequency representation, and we prove a version for the Short-Time Fourier transform with Gaussian window on the modulation spaces. This can equivalently be formulated in terms…
The offset linear canonical transform encompassing the numerous integral transforms, is a promising tool for analyzing non-stationary signals with more degrees of freedom. In this paper, we generalize the windowed offset linear canonical…
In this paper, we generalise Hardy's uncertainty principle to vector-valued functions, and hence to operators. The principle for operators can be formulated loosely by saying that the kernel of an operator cannot be localised near the…
The uncertainty principle is a fundamental principle in theoretical physics, such as quantum mechanics and classical mechanics. It plays a prime role in signal processing, including optics, where a signal is to be analyzed simultaneously in…
We prove two forms of uncertainty principle for the Schr\"odinger group generated by the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator. As a consequence, we derive a related (in fact, equivalent) result for the imaginary harmonic oscillator.
Quantum theory demands that, in contrast to classical physics, not all properties can be simultaneously well defined. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle is a manifestation of this fact. Another important corollary arises that there can be…
Breitenberger's uncertainty principle on the torus $\mathbb{T}$ and its higher-dimensional analogue on $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ are well understood. We give describe an entire family of uncertainty principles on compact manifolds $(M,g)$, which…
The Heisenberg position-momentum uncertainty principle shares with the equivalence principle the role of main pillar of our current description of nature. However, in its original formulation it is inconsistent with special relativity, and…
We prove a simple uncertainty principle and show that it can be applied to prove Wegner estimates near fluctuation boundaries. This gives new classes of models for which localization at low energies can be proven.
The generalized uncertainty principle has been described as a general consequence of incorporating a minimal length from a theory of quantum gravity. We consider a simple quantum mechanical model where the operator corresponding to position…
From positions, attained by modern theoretical physics in understanding of the universe bases, the methodological and philosophical analysis of fundamental physical concepts and their formal and informal connections with the real economic…
Recently it was shown in [New J. Phys. 8, 330 (2006)] that the three dimensional Heisenberg uncertainty principle might be signifficantly sharpened if the relevant quantum state describes the particle in a central potential. I extend that…
It is often said that measuring a system's position must disturb the complementary property, momentum, by some minimum amount due to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Using a "weak-measurement", this disturbance can be reduced. One…
Some of the possible consequences of a generalized uncertainty principle (which emerges in the context of string theory and quantum gravity models as a consequence of fluctuations of the background metric) are analyzed considering the case…
The Generalized Uncertainty Principle and the related minimum length are normally considered in non-relativistic Quantum Mechanics. Extending it to relativistic theories is important for having a Lorentz invariant minimum length and for…
The aim of this paper is two prove two versions of the Dynamical Uncertainty Principlefor the Schr\"odinger equation $i\partial_s u=\mathcal{L}u+Vu$, $u(s=0)=u_0$ where$\mathcal{L}$ is the sub-Laplacian on the Heisenberg group.We show two…
