An Entropic Uncertainty Principle for Quantum Measurements
Abstract
Description
The entropic uncertainty principle as outlined by Maassen and Uffink for a pair of non-degenerate observables in a finite level qusystem is generalized here to the case of a pair of arbitrary quantum measurements. In particular, our result includes not only the case of projectivmeasurements (or equivalently, observables) exhibiting degeneracy but also an uncertainty principle for a single measurement.
