Abstract

The generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) corrected modified relativistic particle model has been derived in curved space-time. From this modified model, the equation of motion (EM) has been constructed relativistically in terms of the affine parameter (λ) or proper time (τ) and nonrelativistically in terms of coordinate time (t). In this context, the constraint analysis technique has been applied to get the EM. Interestingly, the EM obtained in both cases is the usual one. This result clearly indicates an important fact, that is, consistency of the equivalence principle in the GUP framework, and furthermore it can be concluded that with the GUP-corrected modified algebra it is impossible to get the GUP effect in point particle motion.
