Operator Time in a Unified Quantum Boundary Framework

A conceptual framework is presented with time as an observable, represented by a self-adjoint operator in a minimal algebraic quantum theory defined on a conformal boundary. The framework has novel features and may be useful in CFT correspondence such as de Sitter.

Abstract

A conceptual framework is presented with time as an observable, represented by a self-adjoint operator in a minimal algebraic quantum theory defined on a conformal boundary. The framework has novel features and may be useful in CFT correspondence such as de Sitter.
