Wow, that was a nice read, full of Faustian offers and quotes as perplexing as they are enticing: “inverse temperature is imaginary time”. A big remaining question for me, after reading, is how Heisenberg uncertainty (where the Lie bracket ought to not be zero†) plays with the Noether's theorem characterization in terms of a zero Lie bracket. Does this somehow get resolved by passing from the observables picture to the generators picture, is it that the transformation of Jordan algebras into Lie Algebras offers more wiggle room? When I get a moment, I should probably just sit down and read the arxiv paper.
