We introduce action quantum speed limits (QSLs) as a family of bounds on the minimal time to connect two states that, unlike the usual geometric approach, crucially depend on how the path is traversed, i.e. on the instantaneous speed. The…

How fast an observable can evolve in time is answered by so-called ``observable speed limit". Here, we prove a stronger version of the observable speed limit and show that the previously obtained bound is a special case of the new bound.…
