Submitted to “Quantum Nonlocality and Reality – 50 Years of Bell’s theorem”
The Bell’s theorem proofs are rightly identified as proofs of the incompatibility of “local realism” with the predictions of quantum mechanics. But “local realism” brings in both alien-to-quantum-theory classical concepts and also an “outcome independence” condition whose inclusion nullifies those theorems as possible proofs of the need for spooky actions at a distance. Both of these features are avoided in the present proof.

Henry Stapp started the topic Strengthening Bell’s Theorem: Removing the Hidden-Variable Assumption in the forum John Bell Workshop 2014 9 years, 9 months ago
Bell-type theorems, considered as proofs of the logical need for spooky actions, in order to accommodate the predictions of quantum mechanics, have two problems. The first is that the theorems postulate a “reality” structure basically identical to that of classical statistical mechanics. Bell’s theorems then show that imposing “locality” (factoriz…[Read more]
