Why does applying boost to state reduction give an incorrect result?

Suppose we have a state $|\psi \rangle (t)$ in quantum field theory. Till $t=t_0$, the state evolves unitarily using field Hamiltonian $\int d^3x H(x)$. At time $t=t_0$, we perform a measurement and ...

Equation of Motion after Boost

In paper of analyticity and positivity constraints, they take example of effective field of Goldstone boson in a linear sigma model, $$\mathcal{L}_{\text{eff}} = (\partial{\pi})^2 + \frac{c_3}{\Lambda^...
