We derive uncertainty relations valid for any set of dichotomic observables.
As applications, our results can be straightforwardly used to formulate entropic uncertainty relations, separability criteria and entanglement witnesses.

- Abstract: Quantum measurements are inherently probabilistic and quantum theory often
forbids to precisely predict the outcomes of simultaneous measurements. This
phenomenon is captured and quantified through uncertainty relations. Although
studied since the inception of quantum theory, the problem of determining the
possible expectation values of a collection of quantum measurements remains, in
general, unsolved. By constructing a close connection between observables and
graph theory, we derive uncertainty relations valid for any set of dichotomic
observables. These relations are, in many cases, tight, and related to the size
of the maximum clique of the associated graph. As applications, our results can
be straightforwardly used to formulate entropic uncertainty relations,
separability criteria and entanglement witnesses.

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.

Uncertainty relations express limits on the extent to which the outcomes of distinct measurements on a single state can be made jointly predictable.
We show that for a class of theories satisfying a particular symmetry property, the functional form of this predictability tradeoff is constrained by noncontextuality to be below a linear curve.

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.

It is known for a pair of noncommutative observables that there is no state on which they take simultaneously definite values.

This study aims to reveal whether similar relations to quantum ones hold also in generalized probabilistic theories.
