We derive new Heisenberg-type uncertainty relations for both joint measurability and the error-disturbance tradeoff for arbitrary observables of finite-dimensional systems. The relations are formulated in terms of a directly operational…

We present the uncertainty relation for the characteristic functions (ChUR) of the quantum mechanical position and momentum probability distributions. This inequality is more general than the Heisenberg Uncertainty Relation, and is…

The existence of a minimal measurable length is a common feature of various approaches to quantum gravity such as string theory, loop quantum gravity and black-hole physics. In this scenario, all commutation relations are modified and the…
