Uncertainty is complementary to Complementarity

arXiv:quant-ph/9908011

Abstract

For any ideal two-path interferometer it is shown that the wave-particle duality of quantum mechanics implies Heisenberg's uncertainty relation and vice versa. It is conjectured that complementarity and uncertainty are two aspects of the same general principle.
