It turns out to be equivalent to the locality of physics as well as, in the context of quantum field theory, microcausality, thereby revealing that these are actually two redundant hypotheses. It also promotes an epistemic interpretation of the wavefunction collapse, helps address unsolved problems related to nonlocal measurements and provides a new proof of the non-measurability of fermionic fields.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-09-14T13:47:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "relativistic quantum theory", "fundamental properties", "logical implications", "helps address unsolved problems", "quantum field theory" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
