Entropic dynamics: reconstructing quantum field theory in curved space-time

Abstract: The Entropic Dynamics reconstruction of quantum mechanics is extended to the quantum theory of scalar fields in curved space-time. The Entropic Dynamics framework, which derives quantum theory as an application of the method of maximum entropy, is combined with the covariant methods of Dirac, Hojman, Kuchař, and Teitelboim, which they used to develop a framework for classical covariant Hamiltonian theories. The goal is to formulate an information-based alternative to current approaches based on algebraic quant… Show more

“…Whatever the choice of canonical variables, or whether the background is fixed or dynamical, the same "algebra" must hold. As one might expect, the ED formulated here with a dynamical background shares some similarities with the theory developed in [7] [8], in the context of a fixed background. Most obvious is that the variables ρ and φ, or equivalently, ρ and Φ remain canonically conjugate, forming the socalled ensemble phase space, or e-phase space for short.…”
