Quantum gravity, the cosmological constant, and parity transformation

One of the leading issues in quantum field theory and cosmology is the mismatch between the observed and calculated values for the cosmological constant in Einstein's field equations of up to 120 orders of magnitude. In this paper, we discuss new methods to potentially bridge this chasm using the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP). We find that if quantum gravity GUP models are the solution to this puzzle, then it may require the gravitationally modified position operator undergo a parity transformation at high energies.
