Information-theoretic uncertainty relations formulate the joint immeasurability of two noncommuting observables in terms of information entropies.The tradeoff of the accuracy in the outcome of two successive measurements manifests in entropic noise-disturbance uncertainty relations.Recent theoretical analysis predicts that projective measurements are not optimal, with respect to the noise-disturbance tradeoffs.Therefore, the results in our previous paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 030401 (2015)] are outperformed by general quantum measurements.Here, we experimentally test a tight information-theoretic measurement uncertainty relation for three-outcome positive-operator-valued measures, using neutron spin-1 2 qubits.The obtained results violate the lower bound for projective measurements as theoretically predicted.

Noise and disturbance of qubit measurements: An information-theoretic characterization

Alastair A. Abbott, Cyril Branciard

Information-theoretic definitions for the noise associated with a quantum measurement and the corresponding disturbance to the state of the system have recently been introduced [F. Buscemi et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 050401 (2014)]. These definitions are invariant under relabeling of measurement outcomes, and lend themselves readily to the formulation of state-independent uncertainty relations both for the joint estimate of observables (noise-noise relations) and the noise-disturbance tradeoff. Here we derive such relations for incompatible qubit observables, which we prove to be tight in the case of joint estimates, and present progress towards fully characterizing the noise-disturbance tradeoff. In doing so, we show that the set of obtainable noise-noise values for such observables is convex, whereas the conjectured form for the set of obtainable noise-disturbance values is not. Furthermore, projective measurements are not optimal with respect to the joint-measurement noise or noise-disturbance tradeoffs. Interestingly, it seems that four-outcome measurements are needed in the former case, whereas three-outcome measurements are optimal in the latter.

Improved error-tradeoff and error-disturbance relations in terms of measurement error components

Xiao-Ming Lu, Sixia Yu, Kazuo Fujikawa +1 more

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is quantified by error-disturbance tradeoff relations, which have been tested experimentally in various scenarios. Here we shall report various error-disturbance tradeoff relations by decomposing the measurement errors and disturbance into two different components, namely, operator bias and fuzziness. Our uncertainty relations reveal the tradeoffs between these two components of errors, and imply various conditionally valid error-tradeoff relations for the unbiased and projective measurements. We also design a quantum circuit to measure the two components of the error and disturbance.
