Title: Challenges for describing unitary evolution in nontrivial geometries: pictures and representations
Abstract: For some purposes it seems preferable to describe quantum evolution in a Schrodinger picture, but there are subtleties for this in curved spacetime, obstructing a naive treatment as via “many-fingered time.” These are connected with inequivalent representations of the canonical commutation relation
