This Time – What a Strange Turn of Events!

Philip Gibbs

subject

QC01 Quantum mechanics

description

In relativity time is bound to space by the symmetries of spacetime. In the general theory the symmetry is covariance under diffeomorphisms but in string theory this extends to the full permutation group acting on spacetime events. This huge symmetry has profound implications for the nature of time, causality and the way we see our place in the universe.
