contents We revisit key notions related to the evolution of quantum information in few-body quantum mechanics (fbQM) and, for a wide class of dispersion relations, prove uniform bounds on the maximal speed of propagation of quantum information for states and observables with exponential error bounds. Our results imply, in particular, a fbQM version of the Lieb-Robinson bound, which is known to have wide applications in quantum information sciences. We propose a novel approach to proving maximal speed bounds.
