- Abstract: The principle of relativity is extended to accommodate observers with quantum properties. This results in a new theory that introduces relative quantization rules and novel uncertainty relations, while also elucidating some interpretational problems present in the current formulation of quantum mechanics.

This work aims to shed some light on the meaning of the positive energy assumption in relativistic quantum theory.
It is shown that the positive energy property of solutions of relativistic wave equations is very fragile with respect to state transformations beyond free time evolution.

A new quantum postulate is suggested to restore classical locality and causality to quantum physics.
This postulate supports the EPR view that quantum mechanics is incomplete, while also staying compatible to the Bohr view that nothing exists beyond the quantum.

Quantum theory can be understood as pointing to an ontology of relations.
