Abstract

Uncertainty principle lies at the heart of quantum theory and is regarded as a vital property essentially differing from the rule in classical physics. We herein study the dynamics of the entropic uncertainty with regard to multi-measurement in the Markovian and non-Markovian regimes, respectively. We show that how non-Markovian and Markovian noises influence the dynamical evolutions of the measurement uncertainty and its bound. Moreover, we design a simple and valid method to decrease the uncertainty through pre-weak measurement and post-reversal measurement on the subsystems. Further, we offer the physical interpretations behind the uncertainty dynamics by the systemic quantum correlation. Finally, we apply the current observations on entanglement witness.
