But we can make sense of actualism combined with possibilism: a determinate past, up to a certain moment of time, is all that exists; the future does natural from the point of view of a state-reduction theory. many possible events, at di¤erent places and times, each with a locally-de�ned universal state is de�ned on Minkowski spacetime: whatever else relativity is, The process is to be de�ned at each space-time point, as an e¤ective state ./cache/work_g7avlzy4w5aptgogoaqboedm7a.pdf ./txt/work_g7avlzy4w5aptgogoaqboedm7a.txt
