We give a variational formulation for $-\log\mathbb{E}_\nu\left[e^{-f}|\mathcal{F}_t\right]$ for a large class of measures $\nu$. We give a refined entropic characterization of the invertibility of some perturbations of the identity. We…
The finite-rank Lieb-Thirring inequality provides an estimate on a Riesz sum of the $N$ lowest eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta-V(x)$ in terms of an $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$ norm of the potential $V$. We prove here the existence…
A recent development in random matrix theory, the intrinsic freeness principle, establishes that the spectrum of very general random matrices behaves as that of an associated free operator. This reduces the study of such random matrices to…

We classify all finite energy solutions of an equation which arises as the Euler--Lagrange equation of a conformally invariant logarithmic Sobolev inequality on the sphere due to Beckner. Our proof uses an extension of the method of moving…

In quantum theory on curved backgrounds, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is usually discussed in terms of ensemble variances and flat-space commutators. Here we take a different, preparation-based viewpoint tailored to sharp position…
Classical results due to Ingham and Paley-Wiener characterize the existence of nonzero functions supported on certain subsets of the real line in terms of the pointwise decay of the Fourier transforms. Viewing these results as uncertainty…

We discuss a Lorentz covariant space-time uncertainty relation, which agrees with that of Karolyhazy-Ng-van Dam when an observational time period delta t is larger than the Planck time lp. At delta t < lp, this uncertainty relation takes…
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…
Given two or more non-commuting observables, it is generally not possible to simultaneously assign precise values to each. This quantum mechanical uncertainty principle is widely understood to be encapsulated by some form of uncertainty…
We present a probabilistic argument supporting the application of polar duality, as discussed in our previous work, to express the indeterminacy principle of quantum mechanics. Our approach combines the properties of the Mahler volume of a…
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…
The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is one of the fundamental pillars of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. It is normally introduced by postulating the commutation relations $[\hat{x}^i, \hat{p}^j] = i\hbar \delta^{ij}$. However,…
