Based on string theory, black hole physics, doubly special relativity and some "thought" experiments, minimal distance and/or maximum momentum are proposed. As alternatives to the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP), the modified…

In this work, we formulate a generalized uncertainty principle with both position and momentum operators modified from their canonical forms. We study whether Lorentz symmetry is violated and whether it can be saved with these…

A method offering an order of magnitude sensitivity gain is described for using quasar spectra to investigate possible time or space variation in the fine structure constant, alpha. Applying the technique to a sample of 30 absorption…

The new uncertainty relation is derived in the context of the canonical quantum theory with gravity for the case of the maximally symmetric space. This relation establishes a connection between fluctuations of the quantities which determine…

We present the generalisation to (3+1) dimensions of a quantum deformation of the (2+1) (Anti)-de Sitter and Poincar\'e Lie algebras that is compatible with the conditions imposed by the Chern-Simons formulation of (2+1) gravity. Since such…

We investigate the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP) model corrected by higher curvature brane terms. We show that these corrections have a dramatic impact on the spectrum of the model at the linearized level. Owing to the presence of higher…

We extend an implicit regularization scheme to be applicable in the $n$-dimensional space-time. Within this scheme divergences involving parity violating objects can be consistently treated without recoursing to dimensional continuation.…

The notion of ``fundamental constant'' is heavily theory-laden. A natural, fairly precise formulation is possible in the context of the standard model (here defined to include gravity). Some fundamental constants have profound geometric…
