• Abstract: We show how preparation uncertainty relations that are formulated as sums of variances may be tightened by using the quantum Fisher information to quantify quantum fluctuations. We apply this to derive stronger angular momentum uncertainty relations, which in the case of spin-$1/2$ turn into equalities involving the purity. Using an analogy between pure-state decompositions in the Bloch sphere and the moment of inertia of rigid bodies, we identify optimal decompositions that achieve the convex- and concave-roof decomposition of the variance. Finally, we illustrate how these results may be used to identify the classical and quantum limits on phase estimation precision with an unknown rotation axis.

  We propose a novel non-parametric learning paradigm for the identification of drift and diffusion coefficients of non-linear differential equations. The key idea essentially consists of fitting a RKHS-based approximation of the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation to such observations.

  We focus on characterizing the variance over values induced by a distribution over MDPs. Previous work upper bounds the posterior variance over values by solving a so-called uncertainty Bellman equation. We propose a new uncertainty Bellman equation whose solution converges to the true posterior variance over values.

• The identification of mean quantum potential with Fisher information leads to a strong uncertainty relation [0.0]
  The Cramer-Rao bound, satisfied by classical Fisher information, has been shown to give rise to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics. We show that the identification of the mean quantum potential, an important notion in Bohmian mechanics, with the Fisher information, leads, through the Cramer-Rao bound, to an uncertainty principle which is stronger, in general, than both Heisenberg and Robertson-Schrodinger uncertainty relations.

  We construct a class of real-deterministic c-valued variables out of the weak values obtained via a non-perturbing weak measurement of quantum operators. We show that this class of c-valued physical quantities'' provides a real-deterministic contextual hidden variable model for the quantum expectation value of a certain class of operators.

• Metrological complementarity reveals the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox [0.0]
  The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox plays a fundamental role in our understanding of quantum mechanics. It is associated with the possibility of predicting the results of non-commuting measurements with a precision that seems to violate the uncertainty principle. This apparent contradiction to complementarity is made possible by nonclassical correlations stronger than entanglement, called steering.
