Resumo

Mi objetivo en este trabajo es argumentar que es posible establecer una asimetría temporal en teoría cuántica de campos independientemente de los argumentos derivados de considerar la violación de CP y por lo tanto T en interacciones débiles, e independientemente de que las ecuaciones dinámicas de la teoría sean invariantes ante inversión temporal. En particular, argumentaré que la asimetría temporal se sigue a partir del análisis del grupo de simetría propio de la teoría y sus vínculos con la ontología: los mismos argumentos que se aplican para establecer cuáles son las entidades invariantes y con significado físico dentro de la teoría, se pueden utilizar para establecer una asimetría temporal.
