Phys. Rev. Lett. 60, 1103–1106 (1988)Generalized entropic uncertainty relationsReceived 18 November 1987; published in the issue dated 21 March 1988 A new class of uncertainty relations is derived for pairs of observables in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space which do not have any common eigenvector. This class contains an ‘‘entropic’’ uncertainty relation which improves a previous result of Deutsch and confirms a recent conjecture by Kraus. Some comments are made on the extension of these relations to the case where the Hilbert space is infinite dimensional. © 1988 The American Physical Society URL:
