• Title: The generalized uncertainty principle within the ordinary framework of quantum mechanics
• Authors: Y. V. Przhiyalkovskiy,
• Abstract summary: A proper deformation of the underlying coordinate and momentum commutation relations in quantum mechanics accounts for the influence of gravity on small scales. Introducing the squared momentum term results in a generalized uncertainty principle, which limits the minimum uncertainty in particle position to the Planck length. It is shown that the deformed algebra of position and momentum operators can be incorporated into the framework of ordinary quantum mechanics.

• Abstract: A proper deformation of the underlying coordinate and momentum commutation relations in quantum mechanics provides a phenomenological approach to account for the influence of gravity on small scales. Introducing the squared momentum term results in a generalized uncertainty principle, which limits the minimum uncertainty in particle position to the Planck length. However, such a deformation of the commutator significantly changes the formalism, making it separate from the canonical formalism of quantum mechanics. In this study, it is shown that the deformed algebra of position and momentum operators can be incorporated into the framework of ordinary quantum mechanics.
