Ben Feintzeig (UC Irvine) gives a talk at the Irvine-Munich Workshop on the Foundations of Classical and Quantum Field Theories (14 December, 2014) titled "Unitary Inequivalence in Classical Systems".

I show that the problem of unitarily inequivalent representations, as discussed in Ruetsche (2011), arises in classical theories just as in quantum theories, and I argue that this gives reason to not be a Hilbert Space Conservative when interpreting algebraic theories.
