Strong unitary uncertainty relations


Abstract in English

In this paper we provide a new set of uncertainty principles for unitary operators using a sequence of inequalities with the help of the geometric-arithmetic mean inequality. As these inequalities are fine-grained compared with the well-known Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, our framework naturally improves the results based on the latter. As such, the unitary uncertainty relations based on our method outperform the best known bound introduced in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 230402 (2018)] to some extent. Explicit examples of unitary uncertainty relations are provided to back our claims.
