Temporal Quantum Logic
Representing history propositions by projectors on the history Hilbert space naturally encodes the logical structure of history propositions. The lattice operations on the set of projection operations on the history Hilbert space can be applied to model the lattice of logical operations on history propositions.
If two homogeneous histories and don't share the same temporal support they can be modified so that they do. If is in the temporal support of but not (for example) then a new homogeneous history proposition which differs from by including the "always true" proposition at each time can be formed. In this way the temporal supports of can always be joined together. What shall therefore assume that all homogeneous histories share the same temporal support.
We now present the logical operations for homogeneous history propositions and such that

Famous quotes containing the words temporal, quantum and/or logic:
“Science is the language of the temporal world; love is that of the spiritual world. Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Science saddens man; love enraptures the angel; science is still seeking, love has found. Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short to the spirits everything speaks.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“The receipt to make a speaker, and an applauded one too, is short and easy.—Take of common sense quantum sufficit, add a little application to the rules and orders of the House, throw obvious thoughts in a new light, and make up the whole with a large quantity of purity, correctness, and elegancy of style.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“The logic of the world is prior to all truth and falsehood.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
