Thermodynamic uncertainty principles make up one of the few rare anchors in the largely uncharted waters of nonequilibrium systems, the fluctuation theorems being the more familiar. In this work we aim to trace the uncertainties of…

When you measure an observable, A, in Quantum Mechanics, the state of the system changes. This, in turn, affects the quantum-mechanical uncertainty in some non-commuting observable, B. The standard Uncertainty Relation puts a lower bound on…

We consider uncertainty relations that give lower bounds to the sum of variances. Finding such lower bounds is typically complicated, and efficient procedures are known only for a handful of cases. In this paper we present procedures based…

We argue for an operational requirement that all state-dependent measures of disturbance should satisfy. Motivated by this natural criterion, we prove that in any $d$-dimensional Hilbert space and for any pair of non-commuting operators,…

A version of quantum Cram\'{e}r-Rao bound dictates that the covariance of any set of operators is bounded by a product of the derivatives of expectation values and the inverse of quantum metric. We elaborate that because quantum metric…
