Fermionic Fock spaces and quantum states for causal fermion systems. (English) Zbl 1495.81108

Summary: It is shown for causal fermion systems describing Minkowski-type spacetimes that an interacting causal fermion system at time \(t\) gives rise to a distinguished state on the algebra generated by fermionic and bosonic field operators. The proof of positivity of the state is given, and representations are constructed.
