| context window

I actually just asked a question on the physics stack exchange that is semi relevant to this. https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/810429/functiona...

In my question I was asking about a hypothetical time-evolution operator that includes an analog of a light cone that you could think of as a context window. If you had a quantum state that was evolved through time by this operator then I think you could think of the speed of light being a byproduct of the width of the context window of some operator that progresses the quantum state forward by some time interval.

Note I am very much hobbyist-tier with physics so I could also be way off base and this could all be nonsense.

I’m way out of my depth here, but wouldn’t such a function have to encode an amount of information/state orders of magnitude larger than the definition of the function itself?

If this turns out to be possible, we will have found the solution to the Sloot mystery :D

The article references patent “1009908C2” but I can’t find it in the Dutch patent site, nor Google Patent search.

The rest of the article has “crank” written all over it; almost certainly investor fraud too - it’d be straightforward to fake the claimed smartcard video thing to a nontechnical observer - though not quite as egregious as Steorn Orbo or Theranos though.

How can I not have heard of this before?! Sounds like the plot for a thriller movie.
