Dear Edgar, The concept in Kitada's theory of local time that may resemble your idea of an absolute present moment is the universal mapping of QM systems (via their centers of mass) to each and every point of a space-time manifold. All uncountable many of them. This creates a Fiber Bundle<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_bundle>like structure, but it is subtly different. It does not strictly obey Fiber Bundle Construction theorem<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_bundle_construction_theorem> in that there is never a trivial isomorphism to map between an arbitrary pair of "bundles" (here entire separable QM systems) unless the pair of systems are decomposable from a single QM system. Decomposition of QM systems <http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/QM/tensorproducts.pdf> is hard. We can think of it as entanglement relativity, monogamy, etc. The reason is that QM systems have different rules than classical systems (such as GR!) Thus two semi-independent domains. There is no "connection" that allows one to connect them up in a unique narrative, but one does get a "present" moment at each position of space-time that can be matched up with those of its neighbors (using abstract constructions). But there is no such thing as a global covering bundle or "cover space <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covering_space>" allowed as the centers of mass are like any fixed point, by definition, infinitesimal points that cannot be "blown up" to infinite size...
