dc.descriptionWe derive different relations quantifying duality in a generic two-way interferometer. These relations set different upper bounds to the visibility V of the fringes measured at the output port of the interferometer. A hierarchy of inequalities is presented which exhibits the influence of the availability to the experimenter of different sources of which-way information contributing to the total distinguishability D of the ways. For mixed states and unbalanced interferometers an inequality is derived, V^2+ Xi^2 \leq 1, which can be more stringent than the one associated with the distinguishability (V^2+ D^2 \leq 1).
