Weak Temporal Relations
Summary: Introduces weak temporal relations and weak equality as a formalism capturing when reinterpreting per-atomic timestamps preserves information. Proves three semantics for algebraic operators on homogeneous temporal relations are equivalent under weak equality, enabling interchangeable user views and alternative physical storage.
