Quantized generalized Causality for locally covariant quantum field theories
Quantized generalized Causality for locally covariant quantum field theories
Let be the category of non-commutative, associative, -algebras, and let and be the categories of spacetime manifolds with admissible background fields, respectively with and without globally hyperbolic spacelike cone bundles. Let be a covariant functor and suppose there is a functor fitting into the stated commutative diagram and satisfying
where the limit is indexed by , whose objects are . Quantized generalized Causality conjecture. Whenever the specified Cauchy-pushout diagram exists in , the corresponding diagram with arrows induced by exists in , with the spacelike separated disjoint union replaced by the independent subsystems tensor product . This proposes that the generalized classical Causality construction survives perturbative quantization; no resolution is supplied.
