Findings
Restoration of time in timeless models demonstrated.
Examples illustrating BV-BFV and AKSZ formalisms provided.
Connections between classical and quantum formalisms clarified.
Abstract
This note describes the restoration of time in one-dimensional parameterization-invariant (hence timeless) models, namely the classically-equivalent Jacobi action and gravity coupled to matter. It also serves as a timely introduction by examples to the classical and quantum BV-BFV formalism as well as to the AKSZ method.
