Majorization uncertainty relations for mixed quantum states

arXiv:1709.10294 · doi:10.1088/1751-8121/aab66c

Abstract

Majorization uncertainty relations are generalized for an arbitrary mixed quantum state of a finite size . In particular, a lower bound for the sum of two entropies characterizing probability distributions corresponding to measurements with respect to arbitrary two orthogonal bases is derived in terms of the spectrum of and the entries of a unitary matrix relating both bases. The obtained results can also be formulated for two measurements performed on a single subsystem of a bipartite system described by a pure state, and consequently expressed as uncertainty relation for the sum of conditional entropies.
