We explore the new proofs and extensions of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle introduced by A.~Widgerson & Y.~Widgerson in [MR4229152], developed in [MR4453622] by N.C.~Dias, F.~Luef and J.N.~Prata and also in [MR4337266] by Y.~Tang. In…

A planar point set is in convex position precisely when it has a convex polygonization, that is, a polygonization with maximum interior angle measure at most \pi. We can thus talk about the convexity of a set of points in terms of the…

The uncertainty principle limits quantum states such that when one observable takes predictable values there must be some other mutually unbiased observables which take uniformly random values. We show that this restrictive condition plays…

Better representation of the uncertainty in a data visualisation is a focus of recent research activity. A problem with the current literature is that there is a lack of clarity about the definition of uncertainty and what it means to…
