We present and discuss a characterization of the domain of the Liouville superoperator originally due to M. Courbage.
We also provide, with explicit proofs, some domains of essential self-adjointness (cores) of the Liouvillian.

It is also proved that the restricted Feynman path integrals emerge out of von Neumann's postulate on instantaneous measurements.
Results are applied to formulations of the multi-split experiments, the quantum Zeno and the Aharanov-Bohm effects.

As a byproduct, we obtain the Groenewold--Ozawa information gain as a natural monotone for a suitable ordering of instruments.

We also show that DNTs emerge naturally from a particular instance of a joint measurability problem, remarking its relevance in general operator theory.
