• Title: Linear simultaneous measurements of position and momentum with minimum error-trade-off in each minimum uncertainty state
• Authors: Kazuya Okamura
• Abstract summary: Heisenberg's uncertainty relations are the most famous of them but are not universally valid and violated in general. We show that an error-trade-off relation (ETR), called the Branciard-Ozawa ETR, for simultaneous measurements of position and momentum gives the achievable bound in minimum uncertainty states.

• Abstract: So-called quantum limits and their achievement are important themes in physics. Heisenberg's uncertainty relations are the most famous of them but are not universally valid and violated in general. In recent years, the reformulation of uncertainty relations is actively studied, and several universally valid uncertainty relations are derived. On the other hand, several measuring models, in particular, spin-1/2 measurements, are constructed and quantitatively examined. However, there are not so many studies on simultaneous measurements of position and momentum despite their importance. Here we show that an error-trade-off relation (ETR), called the Branciard-Ozawa ETR, for simultaneous measurements of position and momentum gives the achievable bound in minimum uncertainty states. We construct linear simultaneous measurements of position and momentum that achieve the bound of the Branciard-Ozawa ETR in each minimum uncertainty state. To check their performance, we then calculate probability distributions and families of posterior states, sets of states after the measurements, when using them. The results of the paper show the possibility of developing the theory of simultaneous measurements of incompatible observables. In the future, it will be widely applied to quantum information processing.

• Measurement incompatibility is strictly stronger than disturbance [44.99833362998488]
  Heisenberg argued that measurements irreversibly alter the state of the system on which they are acting, causing an irreducible disturbance on subsequent measurements. This article shows that measurement incompatibility is indeed a sufficient condition for irreversibility of measurement disturbance. However, we exhibit a toy theory, termed the minimal classical theory (MCT), that is a counterexample for the converse implication.

  We show that disturbance of one measurement to a subsequent measurement sets lower-bounds to uncertainty. The obtained relations, referred to as disturbance enhanced uncertainty relations, immediately find various applications in the field of quantum information. We anticipate that this new twist on uncertainty principle may shed new light on quantum foundations and may also inspire further applications in the field of quantum information.
