Representing and Reasoning about Time Travel Narratives: Foundational Concepts
Morgenstern, Leora (Leidos Corporation)
The paper develops a branching-time ontology that maintains the classical restriction of forward movement through a temporal tree structure, but permits the representation of paths in which one can perform inferences about time-travel scenarios. Central to the ontology is the notion of an agent embodiment whose beliefs are equivalent to those of an agent who has time-traveled from the future.
