## Abstract

The aim of this article is to formulate some novel uncertainty principles for the continuous shearlet transforms in arbitrary space dimensions. Firstly, we derive an analogue of the Pitt's inequality for the continuous shearlet transforms, then we formulate the Beckner's uncertainty principle via two approaches: one based on a sharp estimate from Pitt's inequality and the other from the classical Beckner's inequality in the Fourier domain. Secondly, we consider a logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the continuous shearlet transforms which has a dual relation with Beckner's inequality. Thirdly, we derive Nazarov's uncertainty principle for the shearlet transforms which shows that it is impossible for a non-trivial function and its shearlet transform to be both supported on sets of finite measure. Towards the culmination, we formulate local uncertainty principles for the continuous shearlet transforms in arbitrary space dimensions.
