Abstract: The existence of a minimal observable length has long been suggested in quantum gravity as well as in string theory. In this context a generalized uncertainty relation has been derived which quantum theoretically describes the minimal length as a minimal uncertainty in position measurements. Here we study in full detail the quantum mechanical structure which underlies this uncertainty relation. DAMTP/94-105, hep-th/9412167, and Phys.Rev.D52:1108 (1995)

Approximate solutions for N-body Hamiltonians with identical particles in D dimensions
Claude Semay,Christophe Roland +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method based on the envelope theory is presented to compute approximate solutions for $N$-body Hamiltonians with identical particles in $D$ dimensions, in some favorable cases the approximate eigenvalues can be analytically determined and can be lower or upper bounds.

Ground State of the Hydrogen Atom via Dirac Equation in a Minimal Length Scenario
TL;DR: In this article, a deformed Heisenberg algebra (kempf algebra) was introduced to calculate the ground state energy of the hydrogen atom due to contributions arising from the presence of a minimal length.

Noncommutative Correction to the Entropy of BTZ Black Hole with GUP
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of noncommutativity and quantum corrections to the temperature and entropy of a BTZ black hole based on a Lorentzian distribution with the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) was investigated.
WKB approximation in deformed space with minimal length
TL;DR: In this article, the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule for deformed space with minimal length is considered and the correctness of the rule is verified by comparing obtained results with exact expressions for corresponding spectra.

Can spacetime be probed below the string size
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that if the energy is not so extreme to cause a gravitational instability and when the scattering angle approaches some critical value from below, the distance starts increasing, thus departing from the usual position-momentum uncertainty relation, and in no instance is the resolution smaller than the string length.

Spacetime quantization induced by classical gravity
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose spacetime uncertainty relations motivated by Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and by Einstein's theory of classical gravity, which is described by a non-commutative algebra whose commutation relations do imply our uncertainty relations.

Minimum physical length and the generalized uncertainty principle in string theory
TL;DR: In this article, a possible definition of path integrals for string theory is studied, based on a discretized version of Polyakov's generating functional, and the finite resolution of string theory, as opposed to the infinite resolution in particle theory, clearly emerges from a renormalization group type analysis.

The algebraic structure of the generalized uncertainty principle
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a deformation of the Heisenberg algebra which depends on a dimensionful parameter κ is the algebraic structure which underlies the generalized uncertainty principle in quantum gravity.
