The standard cosmological model, known as the LambdaCDM model, has been successful in many respects, but it has some significant discrepancies, some of which have not been resolved yet. In measuring the Hubble-Lematre parameter, there is an…
In this paper, we investigate the validity of a quantitative version of stability for the critical Hardy-H\'enon equation \begin{equation*} H(u):=\div(|x|^{-2a}\nabla u)+|x|^{-pb}|u|^{p-2}u=0,\quad u\in D_a^{1,2}(\R^n), \end{equation*}…
The Heisenberg limit is acknowledged as the ultimate precision limit in quantum metrology, traditionally implying that root mean square errors of parameter estimation decrease linearly with the time T of evolution and the number N of…
A classical result due to Frank and Seiringer asserts that for $1\leq p<\frac Ns$, there exists a sharp constant $\mathcal{C}_{N,s,p}>0$ such that $$…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is usually taken to express a limitation of operational possibilities imposed by quantum mechanics. Here we demonstrate that the full content of this principle also includes its positive role as a…

In this paper we prove sharp weighted Hardy-type inequalities on Carnot groups with the homogeneous norm $N=u^{1/(2-Q)}$ associated to Folland's fundamental solution $u$ for the sub-Laplacian $\Delta_{\mathbb{G}}$. We also prove uncertainty…
The present work has as a first goal to extend the previous results in \cite{CFL20} to weighted uncertainty principles with nontrivial radially symmetric weights applied to curl-free vector fields. Part of these new inequalities generalize…
In the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, the sharp classical Sobolev inequality is equivalent by conformal invariance to a Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$. This inequality is sharp in dimension $d\geq 4$, but it is…
The Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) and Extended Uncertainty Principle (EUP) are modifications to the Heisenberg Uncertainly Principle (HUP), expected to apply as the energy approaches the Planck scale. Here we consider a possible…
We establish several optimal moment comparison inequalities (Khinchin-type inequalities) for weighted sums of independent identically distributed symmetric discrete random variables which are uniform on sets of consecutive integers.…
Various approaches to Quantum Gravity (such as String Theory and Doubly Special Relativity), as well as black hole physics predict a minimum measurable length, or a maximum observable momentum, and related modifications of the Heisenberg…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is one of the main tenets of quantum theory. Nevertheless, and despite its fundamental importance for our understanding of quantum foundations, there has been some confusion in its interpretation: although…
Consider the Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space: for every $n \geq 3$ and $1 < p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2},$ there exists a best constant $S_{n,p, \lambda}(\mathbb{B}^{n})>0$ such that $$S_{n, p,…
We establish unweighted Hardy-type inequalities on step-two Carnot groups with one-dimensional vertical layer, with explicit lower bounds for the optimal Hardy constant. The approach is based on a quantitative integration-by-parts mechanism…
The problem of giving a (CR-)geometric description of the best possible order of a subelliptic estimate at a boundary point in the $\bar\partial$-Neumann problem is largely open. In this paper, we introduce a novel technique based on a…
The Heisenberg position-momentum uncertainty relation is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics. However, its standard formulation is not fully consistent with special relativity. While partial understanding has been achieved in the…
We present a formalism which allows for the perturbative derivation of the Extended Uncertainty Principle (EUP) for arbitrary spatial curvature models and observers. Entering the realm of small position uncertainties, we derive a general…
The uncertainty principle generally prohibits determination of certain pairs of quantum mechanical observables with arbitrary precision and forms the basis of indeterminacy in quantum mechanics. It was Heisenberg who used the famous…
