چکیده
Greenberger, Horne, Shimony and Zeilinger gave a new version of the Bell theorem without using inequalities (probabilities). Mermin summarized it concisely; but Bohm and Hiley criticized Mermin’s proof from contextualists’ point of view. Using the Branching Space-time language, in this paper a proof will be given that is free of these difficulties. At the same time we will also clarify the limits of the validity of the theorem when it is taken as a proof that quantum mechanics is not compatible with a deterministic world nor with a world that permits correlated space-related events without a common cause. 1 Greenberger, Horne, Shimony, Zeilinger and Mermin Greenberger, Horne, Shimony and Zeilinger (1990) developed a proof of the Bell theorem without using inequalities. Following Mermin, one can To be published in Foundations of Physics 1996. E-mail: [email protected] Supported by OTKA Foundation, No: T -015606 and T-017176 E-mail: [email protected]

Central Limit Theorem in Multitype Branching Random Walk
A discrete time multitype (p-type) branching random walk on the real line R is considered. The positions of the j-type individuals in the n-th generation form a point process. The asymptotic behavior of these point processes, when the generation size tends to infinity, is studied. The central limit theorem is proved.

A spin-statistics theorem and a PCT theorem are obtained in the context of the superselection sectors in Quantum Field Theory on a 4-dimensional space-time. Our main assumption is the requirement that the modular groups of the von Neumann algebras of local observables associated with wedge regions act geometrically as pure Lorentz transformations. Such a property, satisfied by the local algebra...

Using precision electroweak data, we put limits on " natural " top-color assisted technicolor models. Generically the new U (1) gauge bosons in these models must have masses larger than roughly 2 TeV, although in certain (seemingly unrealistic) models the bound can be much lower.
