Hi,
I have a conceptual question concerning causality and locality in QM.
Causality plays a role in second quantization when doing QFT, which one calls "micro-causality"; the commutators between fields disappear when the interval between them is spacelike.
However, how does this fit in the fact that QM is non-local (entanglement, Aharonov-Bohm effect)? Did people consider adjusting second quantization because of this?
Probably this has been asked before :)
