Treating the time of an event as a quantum variable, we derive a scheme in which superpositions in time are used to perform operations in an indefinite causal order. We use some aspects of a recently developed space-time-symmetric formalism of events. We propose a specific implementation of the scheme and recover the Quantum SWITCH, where quantum operations are performed in an order which is entangled with the state of a control qubit. Our scheme does not rely on any exotic quantum gravitational effect, but instead on phenomena which are naturally fuzzy in time, such as the decay of an excited atom.

Partitions in quantum theory
A definition of multipartitions of quantum systems into possibly non-factor sub-C* algebras, with a representation theorem showing that some partitions, such as fermionic modes, are not fully representable on tensor-p...
