Abstract

Heisenberg and Schr{\"o}dinger uncertainty principles give lower bounds for the product of variances Varρ(A)Varρ(B)Var_{\rho}(A)\cdot Var_{\rho}(B), in a state ρ\rho, if the observables A,BA,B are not compatible, namely if the commutator [A,B][A,B] is not zero. In this paper we prove an uncertainty principle in Schr{\"o}dinger form where the bound for the product of variances Varρ(A)Varρ(B)Var_{\rho}(A)\cdot Var_{\rho}(B) depends on the area spanned by the commutators [ρ,A][\rho,A] and [ρ,B][\rho,B] with respect to an arbitrary quantum version of the Fisher information.
