Abstract: In this work we uncover the intimate relation between curved momentum space and momentum gauge fields. While the former concept has found consideration for some time and been shown to be tied to minimal-length models, the latter constitutes a relatively recent development in quantum gravity phenomenology. In particular, the gauge principle in momentum space is based on a covariant derivative-like modification of the momentum space representation of the position operator as required by minimal coupling. Here, we derive both effects simultaneously from Kaluza-Klein reduction of a higher-dimensional geometry exhibiting curvature in momentum space. The interplay of the emerging gauge fields as well as the remaining curved momentum space at lowest order lead to modifications of the Heisenberg algebra. While the gauge fields imply Moyal-type noncommutativity dependent on the analogue field strength tensor, the dimensionally reduced curved momentum space geometry translates to a Snyder-type noncommutative geometry.
