On the measurement probability of quantum phases
Thomas Schürmann
We consider the probability by which quantum phase measurements of a given precision can be done successfully. The least upper bound of this probability is derived and the associat…

Bias Analysis in Entropy Estimation
Thomas Schürmann
We consider the problem of finite sample corrections for entropy estimation. New estimates of the Shannon entropy are proposed and their systematic error (the bias) is computed ana…

A single particle uncertainty relation
Thomas Schürmann
We consider successive measurements of position and momentum of a single particle. Let P be the conditional probability to measure the momentum k with precision dk, given a previou…
