Borchers algebra refers to a mathematical framework introduced by Daniel Borchers in the context of quantum field theory. It arises notably in the study of algebraic quantum field theory (AQFT), where the focus is on the algebraic structures that underpin quantum fields and their interactions. In Borchers algebra, one typically deals with specific types of algebras constructed from the observables of a quantum field theory. These observables are collections of operators associated with physical measurements.
