Status of generalization of timelike tube theorem to algebras of causal completions
The timelike tube theorem states that the additive algebra $A_{\text{add}}(U)$ of operators in a spacetime region $U$ is equal to the additive algebra $A_{\text{add}}(E(U))$ of the timelike envelope $...

What are some results that assume the Connes' embedding conjecture or any of its reformulations?
As you all (may) know, the Connes embedding conjecture was disproven last year. Also, as its Wikipedia page shows, there are multiple reformulations (but it is definitely not an exhaustive list):
...

Non-perturbative Renormalization in the sense of Polchinski's equation. Do we have a mathematical formulation?
My question is about mathematical treatment of exact renormalization group in the sense of Polchinski's flow equation. In a heuristic form, Polchinski's equation looks like: $\partial_t S[\phi] = \...

Murray-von Neumann classification of local algebras in Haag-Kastler QFT
The Haag-Kastler approach to quantum field theory (QFT) is one of the oldest approaches to rigorously define what a QFT is, it deals with nets of operator algebras: You start with a spacetime and ...
