Question: Quantum Two Time interpretation - arXiv article from Aharonov, et al.

[EddieZ]

Please let me know if this is the wrong place to post this question.

I'm really fascinated by the idea of time symmetry in quantum mechanics and it's implications for the measurement process. I'm trying to make sense out of an article posted in the arXiv by Aharanov, et al. and it seems like there must be something really interesting here, but I can't quite follow it. Hoping someone in this forum would find it interesting and might be able to explain it to those of us with a lesser background...

a single word

Irrelevant

The authors use a version of quantum histories formalism (a generalization of path integral QM).

Moreover, the authors appear to be rather confounded on basic questions and develop an inconsistent mixture of reversibility with irreversibility, determinism with indeterminism, mixed with pure states, etc.
