I only skimmed it but from what he said about phidot, I'd suspect that phi is "multivalued" in the sense that it has multiple branches. But as I say I'd have to read it and quantum mechanics (or field theory, come to that) is very fa...

[23:13:59] <exec> 08└─I'm reading the full paper now, you can enjoy it too since library genesis isn't closed yet [soylentnews.org]. Just go there, click "Scientific articles" and search for "Quantum time crystals". I won't post the link here to avoid making troubles for our site. You have to figure it out yourself.
