The paper is devoted to sharp uncertainty principles (Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl, Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg and Hardy inequalities) on forward complete Finsler manifolds endowed with an arbitrary measure. Under mild assumptions, the existence of…

Motivated by the sharp constants in the $L^2$-Caffarelli--Kohn--Nirenberg (or $L^2$-CKN for short) inequalities on Euclidean spaces, we study, in a unified framework, a sequence of $L^2$-CKN inequalities on metric measure spaces. On a…

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle shows that no one can specify the values of the non-commuting canonically conjugated variables simultaneously. However, the uncertainty relation is usually applied to two incompatible measurements. We…

We present a rigidity scenario for complete Riemannian manifolds supporting the Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl uncertainty principle with the sharp constant in $\mathbb R^n$ (shortly, sharp HPW principle). Our results deeply depend on the curvature…

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…

In this paper, we obtain non-symmetric and symmetric versions of the classical Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl uncertainty principle in Lebesgue spaces with power weights.

By employing harmonic analysis techniques, we derive weak-type Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities under natural parameter conditions. A key feature of these weak-type versions is that they remain valid even at critical parameter values…

Incompatible observables can be approximated by compatible observables in joint measurement or measured sequentially, with constrained accuracy as implied by Heisenberg's original formulation of the uncertainty principle. Recently, Busch,…

This paper studies the uncertainty principle for spherical $h$-harmonic expansions on the unit sphere of $\mathbb{R}^d$ associated with a weight function invariant under a general finite reflection group, which is in full analogy with the…

By building on our earlier work, we establish uncertainty principles in terms of Heisenberg inequalities and of the ambiguity functions associated with magnetic structures on certain coadjoint orbits of infinite-dimensional Lie groups.…

Sharp comparison theorems are derived for all eigenvalues of the (weighted) Laplacian, for various classes of weighted-manifolds (i.e. Riemannian manifolds endowed with a smooth positive density). Examples include Euclidean space endowed…

In this paper, Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl-type uncertainty inequalities are obtained for a pair of positive-self adjoint operators on a Hilbert space, whose spectral projectors satisfy a ``balance condition'' involving certain operator norms.…

We study sharp second order inequalities of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type in the euclidian space $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, where $N$ denotes the dimension. This analysis is equivalent to the study of uncertainty principles for special classes of…

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle imposes a fundamental restriction in quantum mechanics, stipulating that measuring one observable completely erases the information on its conjugate one, thereby preventing simultaneous measurements of…

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle (HUP) limits the accuracy in the simultaneous measurements of the position and momentum variables of any quantum system. This is known to be true in the context of non-relativistic quantum mechanics.…

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.…
