Non-Hermitian systems with exceptional points lead to many intriguing phenomena due to the coalescence of both eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors, in comparison to Hermitian systems where only eigenvalues degenerate. In this paper, we have investigated entropic uncertainty relation (EUR) in a non-Hermitian system and revealed a general connection between the EUR and the exceptional points of non-Hermitian system. Compared to the unitarity dynamics determined by a Hermitian Hamiltonian, the behaviors of EUR can be well defined in two different ways depending on whether the system is located in unbroken phase or broken phase regimes. In unbroken phase regime, EUR undergoes an oscillatory behavior while in broken phase regime where the oscillation of EUR breaks down. The exceptional points mark the oscillatory and non-oscillatory behaviors of the EUR. In the dynamical limit, we have identified the witness of critical behavior of non-Hermitian systems in terms of the EUR. Our results reveal that the witness can detect exactly the critical points of non-Hermitian systems beyond (anti-) PT-symmetric systems. Our results may have potential applications to witness and detect phase transition in non-Hermitian systems.

Quantum uncertainty relations are formulated in terms of relative entropy between distributions of measurement outcomes and suitable reference distributions with maximum entropy. This type of entropic uncertainty relation can be applied directly to o
bservables with either discrete or continuous spectra. We find that a sum of relative entropies is bounded from above in a nontrivial way, which we illustrate with some examples.
Gaussian distribution of a quantum state with continuous spectrum is known to maximize the Shannon entropy at a fixed variance. Applying it to a pair of canonically conjugate quantum observables $hat x$ and $hat p$, quantum entropic uncertainty relat
ion can take a suggestive form, where the standard deviations $sigma_x$ and $sigma_p$ are featured explicitly. From the construction, it follows in a transparent manner that: (i) the entropic uncertainty relation implies the Kennard-Robertson uncertainty relation in a modifed form, $sigma_xsigma_pgeqhbar e^{cal N}/2$; (ii) the additional factor ${cal N}$ quantifies the quantum non-Gaussianity of the probability distributions of two observables; (iii) the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty relation for non-gaussian continuous variable (CV) mixed state becomes stronger with purity. Optimality of specific non-gaussian CV states to the refined uncertainty relation has been investigated and the existance of new class of CV quantum state is identified.
We derive an entropic uncertainty relation for generalized positive-operator-valued measure (POVM) measurements via a direct-sum majorization relation using Schur concavity of entropic quantities in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space. Our approach pr
ovides a significant improvement of the uncertainty bound compared with previous majorization-based approaches [S. Friendland, V. Gheorghiu and G. Gour, Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 230401 (2013); A. E. Rastegin and K. .Zyczkowski, J. Phys. A, 49, 355301 (2016)], particularly by extending the direct-sum majorization relation first introduced in [L. Rudnicki, Z. Pucha{l}a and K. .{Z}yczkowski, Phys. Rev. A 89, 052115 (2014)]. We illustrate the usefulness of our uncertainty relations by considering a pair of qubit observables in a two-dimensional system and randomly chosen unsharp observables in a three-dimensional system. We also demonstrate that our bound tends to be stronger than the generalized Maassen--Uffink bound with an increase in the unsharpness effect. Furthermore, we extend our approach to the case of multiple POVM measurements, thus making it possible to establish entropic uncertainty relations involving more than two observables.
We derive new inequalities for the probabilities of projective measurements in mutually unbiased bases of a qudit system. These inequalities lead to wider ranges of validity and tighter bounds on entropic uncertainty inequalities previously derived in the literature.
In the history of quantum mechanics, various types of uncertainty relationships have been introduced to accommodate different operational meanings of Heisenberg uncertainty principle. We derive an optimized entropic uncertainty relation (EUR) that qu
antifies an amount of quantum uncertainty in the scenario of successive measurements. The EUR characterizes the limitation in the measurability of two different quantities of a quantum state when they are measured through successive measurements. We find that the bound quantifies the information between the two measurements and imposes a condition that is consistent with the recently-derived error-disturbance relationship.
