Abstract

This paper discusses the possibility of temporal generation of events in relational quantum mechanics (RQM). It critically examines claims by Adlam and Rovelli that the events in RQM must have been created all-at-once in order to avoid a contradiction with the theory of relativity. The analysis demonstrates that not considering the set of events as absolute and observer-independent allows for their temporal generation. Furthermore, the paper establishes that even with the postulate of cross-perspective links, it remains possible to regard the set of events as non-absolute. Thus, events in relational quantum mechanics can be generated temporally and need not have been created all-at-once.
