A Higher Order GUP with Minimal Length Uncertainty and Maximal Momentum

arXiv:1110.2999 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2012.07.005

Abstract

We present a higher order generalized (gravitational) uncertainty principle (GUP) in the form . 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.
