Non-commutative Rényi entropic uncertainty principles (Q829088): Difference between revisions

\textit{I.~Bialynicki-Birula} showed Rényi entropic uncertainty principles for position and momentum and also for a pair of complementary observables in \(N\)-level systems in [``Formulation of the uncertainty relations in terms of the Rényi entropies'', Phys. Rev. A (3) 74, No. 5, 052101, 6 pp. (2006; \url{doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.74.052101})]. The max-entropy, the min-entropy and the collision entropy are important in quantum mechanics and they can be considered as special limits of the Rényi entropy. \textit{C.-L. Jiang} and the authors of this paper proved various uncertainty principles for subfactors in terms of Jones' planar algebras [J. Funct. Anal. 270, No. 1, 264--311 (2016; Zbl 1352.46062)], including the Donoho-Stark uncertainty principle for the max-entropy, the Hirschman-Beckner uncertainty principle for the von Neumann entropy, and Hardy's uncertainty principle. It is natural to ask whether Rényi entropic uncertainty principles hold for subfactor planar algebras. In this paper, the authors answer this question positively. They first calculate the norm of the string Fourier transform on subfactor planar algebras and characterize the extremizers of the inequalities for parameters \(0 < p, q \leq \infty\). Then they establish the Rényi entropic uncertainty principles for subfactor planar algebras.
