A Higher Order GUP with Minimal Length Uncertainty and Maximal Momentum
read the original abstract
We present a higher order generalized (gravitational) uncertainty principle (GUP) in the form $[X,P]=i\hbar/(1-\beta P^2)$. This form of GUP is consistent with various proposals of quantum gravity such as string theory, loop quantum gravity, doubly special relativity, and predicts both a minimal length uncertainty and a maximal observable momentum. We show that the presence of the maximal momentum results in an upper bound on the energy spectrum of the momentum eigenstates and the harmonic oscillator.

From minimal-length quantum theory to modified gravity
A systematic mapping is derived from GUP parameters in minimal-length quantum theory to higher-order curvature coefficients in extended gravity, with an application yielding an upper bound on the minimal measurable le...
