Some aspects of gravitational quantum mechanics

Abstract: String theory, quantum geometry, loop quantum gravity and black hole physics all indicate the existence of a minimal observable length on the order of Planck length. This feature leads to a modification of Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Such a modified Heisenberg uncertainty principle is referred as gravitational uncertainty principle(GUP) in literatures. This proposal has some novel implications on various domains of theoretical physics. Here, we study some consequences of GUP in the spirit of Quantum mech… Show more

“…This assumption is not unjustifiable in view of the fact that the standard model charges cannot move in extra dimensions in theory of brane world model. Now, extra dimensions are widely accepted by theorists and there are large works about it [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. This model gives us the new spectra, which looks same as our previous works [6], however, have different physical meaning.…”

“…Indeed, the notion of minimal length should quantum mechanically be described as a minimal uncertainty in position measurements. The introduction of this idea has drawn much attention in recent years and many papers have been appeared in the literature to address the effects of GUP on various quantum mechanical systems and phenomena [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]35,36].…”

“…More general cases of such commutation relations are studied in [7]- [11]. Also various applications of the low energy effects of the modified Heisenberg uncertainty relations have been extensively studied, see for example [12]- [15]. In this letter we consider a two dimensional minisuperspace of Bianchi type I cosmology in the GUP framework.…”
