Abstract: This study explores the cosmological constant problem and modified uncertainty principle within a unified framework inspired by a void-dominated scenario for cosmology. In a recent paper [E. Yusofi, M. Khanpour, B. Khanpour, M. A. Ramzanpour and M. Mohsenzadeh, Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 511, L82 (2022)], voids were modeled as spherical bubbles of similar average sizes, and the surface energy on the voids’ borders was calculated across various scales in a heuristic manner. We show that these result in a significant discrepancy of approximately [Formula: see text] between the cosmological constant values from the minimum to the maximum radii of bubbles. Furthermore, when considering the generalized form of the uncertainty principle with both minimum and maximum lengths, i.e. [Formula: see text], a similar order of discrepancy is observed between [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], indicating that [Formula: see text]. As a primary outcome of this finding, we offer a novel uncertainty principle that incorporates a nonzero cosmological constant.
