Abstract: Quantum states can be subjected to classical measurements, whose incompatibility, or uncertainty, can be quantified by a comparison of certain entropies. There is a long history of such entropy inequalities between position and momentum. Recently these inequalities have been generalized to the tensor product of several Hilbert spaces and we show here how their derivations can be shortened to a few lines and how they can be generalized. All the recently derived uncertainty relations utilize the strong subadditivity (SSA) theorem; our contribution relies on directly utilizing the proof technique of the original derivation of SSA.

Review text

The authors establish results which can be seen as quantum extensions of the discrete Maassen-Uffink inequality, which relates the `classical' entropies of a quantum density matrix in two different bases by providing a a lower bound for their sum. The main idea is to make use of the original proof structure of the Lieb-Ruskai strong subadditivity theorem for the von Neumann entropy. The main theorems are stated in terms of the classical/quantum conditional entropy corresponding to a classical measurement and a given density matrix. Continuous version of the results are discussed.
