Bianca Dittrich (Perimeter Institute) gives a talk at the Workshop on the Problem of Time in Perspective (3-4 July, 2015) titled "The Consistent Boundary Formulation". Abstract: I will introduce the consistent boundary formulation which allows to express renormalization flow in a background independent context. I will discuss consequences of this formulation for the Hamiltonian framework and explore in which sense Hamiltonian constraints do actually exists in this context and how this influences the notion of time.
