The Emperor Has No Nonlocality

Authors: Lukas A. Saul

The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiment and certain predictions of quantum mechanics in theoretical and experimental forms are sometimes described as exhibiting non-local action. We describe here an interpretation of one oft-discussed EPR experiment with a locally realistic model. We demonstrate a consistent description based on probabilistic measurement for Mermin and Aspect EPR setups, and show how Bell's theorem applies. Quantum non-locality is shown to be an interpretation dependent on deterministic measurement and vanishes when a treatment of probabilistic measurement and relevant information theory is included.
