• Title: Generalised Uncertainty Relations and the Problem of Dark Energy
• Authors: Matthew J. Lake
• Abstract summary: We outline a new model in which generalised uncertainty relations, that govern the behaviour of microscopic world, and dark energy, are intrinsically linked via the quantum properties of space-time. In this approach the background is treated as a genuinely quantum object, with an associated state vector, and additional fluctuations of the geometry naturally give rise to the extended generalised uncertainty principle (EGUP) An effective dark energy density then emerges from the field that minimises the modified uncertainty relations.

• Abstract: We outline a new model in which generalised uncertainty relations, that govern the behaviour of microscopic world, and dark energy, that determines the large-scale evolution of the Universe, are intrinsically linked via the quantum properties of space-time. In this approach the background is treated as a genuinely quantum object, with an associated state vector, and additional fluctuations of the geometry naturally give rise to the extended generalised uncertainty principle (EGUP). An effective dark energy density then emerges from the field that minimises the modified uncertainty relations. These results are obtained via modifications of the canonical quantum operators, but without modifications of the canonical Heisenberg algebra, allowing many well known problems associated with existing GUP models to be circumvented.

• Generalized Extended Uncertainty Principles, Liouville theorem and density of states: Snyder-de Sitter and Yang models [0.0]
  Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) and Extended Uncertainty Principle (EUP) introduce quantum gravitational effects at small and large distances. A combination of GUP and EUP, the Generalized Extended Uncertainty Principle (GEUP or EGUP), further generalizes these modifications by incorporating noncommutativity in both coordinates and momenta. This paper examines the impact of GEUP on the Liouville theorem in statistical physics and density of states within non-relativistic quantum mechanics framework.

  We show that the boundary of expectation value space corresponds to the ground state, which presents a natural bound that generalizes Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. Our approach provides an alternative time-independent quantum formulation that transforms the linear problem in a high-dimensional Hilbert space into a nonlinear algebro-geometric problem in a low dimension.
