摘要
As an initial attempt to address some of the foundational problems of quantum mechanics, we formulate the consistent histories interpretation of quantum field theory on a globally hyperbolic curved space time. We then construct quasiclassical histories for a free, massive scalar field. In the final part, we point out the shortcomings of the theory and conjecture that one must take into account the fact that gravity is quantized in order to overcome them. © 1991.
