Einstein-separability, Time Related Hidden Parameters for Correlated Spins, and the Theorem of Bell

چکیده
We analyze the assumptions that are made in the proofs of Bell-type inequalities for the results of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen type of experiments. We find that the introduction of time-like random variables permits the construction of a broader mathematical model which accounts for all correlations of variables that are contained in the time dependent parameter set of the backward light cone. It also permits to obtain the quantum result for the spin pair correlation, a result that contradicts Bell’s inequality. Two key features of our mathematical model are (i) the introduction of time operators that are indexed by the measurement settings and appear in addition to Bell’s source parameters and (ii) the related introduction of a probability measure for all parameters that does depend on the analyzer settings. Using the theory of B-splines, we then show that this probability measure can be constructed as a linear combination of setting dependent subspace product measures and that the construction guarantees Einstein-separability.

Non-separability does not relieve the problem of Bell’s theorem
This paper addresses arguments that “separability” is an assumption of Bell’s theorem, and that abandoning this assumption in our interpretation of quantum mechanics (a position sometimes referred to as “holism”) will allow us to restore a satisfying locality principle. Separability here means that all events associated to the union of some set of disjoint regions are combinations of events ass...
متن کاملBell’s theorem: Critique of proofs with and without inequalities
Most of the standard proofs of the Bell theorem are based on the Kolmogorov axioms of probability theory. We show that these proofs contain mathematical steps that cannot be reconciled with the Kolmogorov axioms. Specifically we demonstrate that these proofs ignore the conclusion of a theorem of Vorob’ev on the consistency of joint distributions. As a consequence Bell’s theorem stated in its fu...

In this talk presented at the TAU92 workshop, Colombus, OH, Sept. 92, we summarize results presented in more detail in a recent paper by S. Abel, M. Dittmar and the author where we gave a general proof that Bell's inequality can not be tested at a collider experiment. In particular, a measurement of correlated tau-spins at LEP does not constitute a test of local realistic theories via Bell's in...
متن کاملNo time loophole in Bell's theorem: the Hess-Philipp model is nonlocal.
Hess and Philipp recently claimed [(2001) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 98, 14224-14227 and 14228-14233] that proofs of Bell's theorem have overlooked the possibility of time dependence in local hidden variables, hence the theorem has not been proven true. Moreover they present what is claimed to be a local realistic model of the EPR correlations. If this is true then Bell's theorem is not just un...

We analyze and compare the mathematical formulations of the criterion for separability for bipartite density matrices and the Bell inequalities. We show that a violation of a Bell inequality can formally be expressed as a witness for entanglement. We also show how the criterion for separability and the existence of a description of the state by a local hidden variable theory, become equivalent ...
