Constraining the generalized uncertainty principle with the gravitational wave event GW150914

In this letter, we show that the dimensionless parameters in the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) can be constrained by the gravitational wave event GW150914, which was discovered by the LIGO Scientific and Virgo Collaborations. Firstly, according to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle (HUP)...
