Quantum Theory and RelativityArthur Jaffe Harvard UniversityCambridge, MA 02138, 1, 2007 Dedicated to George MackeyAbstractElsewhere I describe some personal encounters with George Mackey [31]. Those discussionsoften returned to a common set of questions: Does physics suggest a way to combine Quantum Theory , Relativity , and interaction? To what extent can one formulate such Quantum physics as mathematics? What is the present status of Quantum field Theory ? What new mathematics emerges? What new insight does one apparently require to make further progress?
Quantum Theory and Relativity 3 latter topic extensively elsewhere, but this is not the central theme that we investigate here. Rather, we simply formulate the second ground rule: physics should be a subfield of mathematics!
