Description

Here are some related papers:

  • Interpreting QRF transformations through a simple example (https://arxiv.org/abs/2508.09540) - good overview of the different approaches
  • Quantum mechanics and the covariance of physical laws in QRFs (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-08155-0) - original paper on the perspectival approach and quite accessible
  • Edge modes as reference frames and boundary actions from post-selection (https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.06184) and QRFs at the boundary of spacetime (https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.11629) - for the relation of QRFs and edge modes
