We entertain the idea that the uncertainty relation is not a principle, but rather it is a consequence of quantum mechanics. The uncertainty relation is then a probabilistic statement and can be clearly evaded in processes which occur with a very small probability in a tiny sector of the phase space. This clear evasion is typically realized when one utilizes indirect measurements, and some examples of the clear evasion appear in the system with entanglement though the entanglement by itself is not essential for the evasion. The standard Kennards relation and its interpretation remain intact in our analysis. As an explicit example, we show that the clear evasion of the uncertainty relation for coordinate and momentum in the diffraction process discussed by Ballentine is realized in a tiny sector of the phase space with a very small probability. We also examine the uncertainty relation for a two-spin system with the EPR entanglement and show that no clear evasion takes place in this system with the finite discrete degrees of freedom.

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.
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.
The uncertainty relation lies at the heart of quantum theory and behaves as a non-classical constraint on the indeterminacies of incompatible observables in a system. In the literature, many experiments have been devoted to the test of the uncertaint y relations which mainly focus on the pure states. Here we present an experimental investigation on the optimal majorization uncertainty for mixed states by means of the coherent light. The polarization states with adjustable mixedness are prepared by the combination of two coherent beams, and we test the majorization uncertainty relation for three incompatible observables using the prepared mixed states. The experimental results show that the direct sum majorization uncertainty relations are tight and optimal for general mixed systems.
Uncertainty principle is a striking and fundamental feature in quantum mechanics distinguishing from classical mechanics. It offers an important lower bound to predict outcomes of two arbitrary incompatible observables measured on a particle. In quan tum information theory, this uncertainty principle is popularly formulized in terms of entropy. Here, we present an improvement of tripartite quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation. The uncertaintys lower bound is derived by considering mutual information and Holevo quantity. It shows that the bound derived by this method will be tighter than the lower bound in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 020402 (2009)]. Furthermore, regarding a pair of mutual unbiased bases as the incompatibility, our bound will become extremely tight for the three-qubit $emph{X}$-state system, completely coinciding with the entropy-based uncertainty, and can restore Renes ${emph{et al.}}$s bound with respect to arbitrary tripartite pure states. In addition, by applying our lower bound, one can attain the tighter bound of quantum secret key rate, which is of basic importance to enhance the security of quantum key distribution protocols.
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.
