Some Consequences of the Hypothesis of Minimal Lengths

TL;DR

This paper explores the implications of the hypothesis that there exists a minimal length scale in quantum theory, analyzing its theoretical consequences and potential impact on our understanding of fundamental physics.

Contribution

It provides a detailed examination of the theoretical consequences of minimal length hypotheses in quantum physics, expanding on prior models and proposing new perspectives.

Findings

Minimal length leads to modifications in quantum uncertainty relations

Implications for quantum gravity and string theory are discussed

Potential observable effects in high-energy physics are considered
