Introduction to the general boundary formulation of quantum theory
... In a fundamental quantum theory a state is a priori a state of the universe. But, we cannot hope to be able to describe the universe in all its details. We need to be able to describe physics locally. In quantum field theory this is achieved dynamically, using the background metric. Causality and cl ...

... by that of the (homogeneous) Lorentz group, inverting the semi-direct product of the supergroup’s construction sP 3,1 = SL(2, C) × [R(1, 3)(+)S(1, 3)]. The rules of the game were clarified by L. Corwin, Y. Ne’eman and S. Sternberg [6], who also explored the field and collected examples – and by P.G.O. ...
