Abstract

We extend uncertainty principles which are valid for the Fourier transform to the setting of the ambiguity function. A general result is established for annihilating sets: strongly/weakly annihilating sets for the Fourier transform yield such sets for the ambiguity function, extending a result known for sets of finite measure. We apply this to sublevel sets of nondegenerate quadratic forms. Our main result is a sharp version of Beurling's uncertainty principle for the ambiguity function.
