Generalized Analogs of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Inequality

Abstract

We investigate locally compact topological groups for which a generalized analogue of Heisenberg uncertainty inequality hold. In particular, it is shown that this inequality holds for ${\mathbb{R}}^n\times K$ (where $K$ is a separable unimodular locally compact group of type I), Euclidean Motion group and several general classes of nilpotent Lie groups which include thread-like nilpotent Lie groups, $2$-NPC nilpotent Lie groups and several low-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups.
