In the framework of the generalized uncertainty principle, the position and momentum operators obey the modified commutation relation $[X,P]=ihbarleft(1+beta P^2right)$ where $beta$ is the deformation parameter. Since the validity of the uncertainty relation for the Shannon entropies proposed by Beckner, Bialynicki-Birula, and Mycieslki (BBM) depends on both the algebra and the used representation, we show that using the formally self-adjoint representation, i.e., $X=x$ and $P=tanleft(sqrt{beta}pright)/sqrt{beta}$ where $[x,p]=ihbar$, the BBM inequality is still valid in the form $S_x+S_pgeq1+lnpi$ as well as in ordinary quantum mechanics. We explicitly indicate this result for the harmonic oscillator in the presence of the minimal length.

Modifications of Heisenbergs uncertainty relations have been proposed in the literature which imply a minimum position uncertainty. We study the low energy effects of the new physics responsible for this by examining the consequent change in the quan tum mechanical commutation relations involving position and momenta. In particular, the modifications to the spectrum of the hydrogen atom can be naturally interpreted as a varying (with energy) fine structure constant. From the data on the energy levels we attempt to constrain the scale of the new physics and find that it must be close to or larger than the weak scale. Experiments in the near future are expected to change this bound by at least an additional order of magnitude.
Entropic uncertainty is a well-known concept to formulate uncertainty relations for continuous variable quantum systems with finitely many degrees of freedom. Typically, the bounds of such relations scale with the number of oscillator modes, preventi ng a straight-forward generalization to quantum field theories. In this work, we overcome this difficulty by introducing the notion of a functional relative entropy and show that it has a meaningful field theory limit. We present the first entropic uncertainty relation for a scalar quantum field theory and exemplify its behavior by considering few particle excitations and the thermal state. Also, we show that the relation implies the Robertson-Schrodinger uncertainty relation.
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.
Studies in string theory and quantum gravity suggest the existence of a finite lower limit $Delta x_0$ to the possible resolution of distances, at the latest on the scale of the Planck length of $10^{-35}m$. Within the framework of the euclidean path integral we explicitly show ultraviolet regularisation in field theory through this short distance structure. Both rotation and translation invariance can be preserved. An example geometry is studied in detail.
The uncertainty principle determines the distinction between the classical and quantum worlds. This principle states that it is not possible to measure two incompatible observables with the desired accuracy simultaneously. In quantum information theo ry, Shannon entropy has been used as an appropriate measure to express the uncertainty relation. According to the applications of entropic uncertainty relation, studying and trying to improve the bound of this relation is of great importance. Uncertainty bound can be altered by considering an extra quantum system as the quantum memory $B$ which is correlated with the measured quantum system $A$. One can extend the bipartite quantum memory assisted entropic uncertainty relation to tripartite quantum memory assisted entropic uncertainty relation in which the memory is split into two parts. In this work, we obtain a lower bound for the tripartite quantum memory assisted entropic uncertainty relation. Our lower bound has two additional terms compared to the lower bound in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 020402 (2009)] which depending on the conditional von Neumann entropy, the Holevo quantity and mutual information. It is shown that the bound obtained in this work is more tighter than other bounds. In addition, using our lower bound, a lower bound for the quantum secret key rate has been obtained. The lower bound is also used to obtain the states for which the strong subadditivity inequality and Koashi-Winter inequality is satisfied with equality.
