We establish an uncertainty principle for functions $f: \mathbb{Z}/p \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_q$ with constant support (where $p \mid q-1$). In particular, we show that for any constant $S > 0$, functions $f: \mathbb{Z}/p \rightarrow…
We revisit the Extended Uncertainty Principle (EUP) from an operational viewpoint, replacing wavefunction-based widths with apparatus-defined position constraints such as a finite slit of width $\Delta x$ or a geodesic ball of radius $R$.…
We study the process of dispersion of low-regularity solutions to the Schr\"odinger equation using fractional weights (observables). We give another proof of the uncertainty principle for fractional weights and use it to get a lower bound…
In this paper, we extend the coupled fractional Fourier transform of a complex valued functions to that of the quaternion valued functions on $\mathbb{R}^4$ and call it the quaternion coupled fractional Fourier transform (QCFrFT). We obtain…
We shed new light on Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in the sense of Beurling, by offering an essentially different proof which permits us to weaken the assumptions substantially, and examples show that the result is sharp. The proof…
We study the formulation of the uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics in terms of entropic inequalities, extending results recently derived by Bialynicki-Birula [1] and Zozor et al. [2]. Those inequalities can be considered as…
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…
The celebrated Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle \Delta x \Delta p\ge \hbar/2 can allow measurement accuracies less than \Delta x or \Delta p. Classical analog of this is known as sub-Fourier sensitivity. We illustrate this phenomenon in a…
A generalized uncertainty principle is obtained from a conformally transformed action containing a scalar field and a unique constraint. The constraint's Lagrange multiplier is found to obey a relativistic diffusion equation transforming…
In this paper, we systematically investigate the Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl uncertainty principle for free metaplectic transformation, as well as metaplectic operators. Specifically, we obtain two different types of the uncertainty principle for…
The main objective of the present paper is to establish a new uncertainty principle (UP) for the two-sided quaternion Fourier transform (QFT). This result is an extension of a result of Benedicks, Amrein and Berthier, which states that a…
The discrete Fourier transform has proven to be an essential tool in many geometric and combinatorial problems in vector spaces over finite fields. In general, sets with good uniform bounds for the Fourier transform appear more `random' and…
We prove the logarithmic convexity of certain quantities, which measure the quadratic exponential decay at infinity and within two characteristic hyperplanes of solutions of Schr\"odinger evolutions. As a consequence we obtain some…
The phenomenon in the essence of classical uncertainty principles is well known since the thirties of the last century. We introduce a new phenomenon which is in the essence of a new notion that we introduce: "Generalized Uncertainty…

We extend Hardy's uncertainty principle for a square integrable function and its Fourier transform to the multidimensional case using a symplectic diagonalization. We use this extension to show that Hardy's uncertainty principle is…
In this paper we consider uncertainty principles for solutions of certain PDEs on H-type groups. We first prove that, contrary to the euclidean setting, the heat kernel on H-type groups is not characterized as the only solution of the heat…
In this paper we review the Heisenberg uncertainty principle in a discrete setting and, as in the classical uncertainty principle, we give it a dynamical sense related to the discrete Schr\"odinger equation. We study the convergence of the…
The role of the Uncertainty Principle is examined through the examples of squeezing, information capacity, and position monitoring. It is suggested that more attention should be directed to conceptual considerations in quantum information…
