Abstract: | This is a conceptual overview on a polemical subject: the problem of time asymmetry. It is proved that time asymmetry can
be considered as a global generalized symmetry breaking, produced by a choice of a physically admissible state space, in a
global Gel'fand triplet. The well-known physics of irreversible process can be studied using this mathematical structure and
all the arrows of time can be explained and coordinated. But the deeper problems of time definition and time arrow in quantum
gravity remain outside of this landscape. |
