Refutation of Richard Gill’s Argument Against my Disproof of Bell’s Theorem
نویسنده
چکیده
I identify a number of errors in Richard Gill’s purported refutation of my disproof of Bell’s theorem. In particular, I point out that his central argument is based, not only on a rather trivial misreading of my counterexample to Bell’s theorem, but also on a simple oversight of a freedom of choice in the orientation of a Clifford algebra. What is innovative and original in my counterexample is thus mistaken for an error, at the expense of the professed universality and generality of Bell’s theorem.

Refutation of Some Arguments Against my Disproof of Bell’s Theorem
In a couple of recent preprints Moldoveanu has suggested that there are errors in my disproof of Bell’s theorem. Here I show that this claim is false. In particular, I show that my local-realistic framework is incorrectly and misleadingly presented in both of his preprints. In addition there are a number of serious mathematical and conceptual errors in his discussion of my framework. For exampl...
متن کاملA Physics - based Disproof of Bell ' s Theorem
After decades of experimental validation, Bell’s Theorem has changed the ontological status of local realism in physics. But recent theoretical and experimental results present a new challenge to Bell’s analysis. A geometricalgebraic challenge claims that Bell makes a topological mistake, while ‘weak measurement’ results challenge the Copenhagen Interpretation. We review these results and analy...

We show that Mermin’s reasoning against our refutation of his non-technical proof for Bell-type inequalities is of limited significance or contains mathematical inconsistencies that, when taken into account, do not permit his proof to go forward. Our refutation therefore stands. We discuss two recent notes of Mermin [1], [2] that deal with our refutation [3] of Mermin’s non-technical proof [4] ...
متن کاملDisproof of Bell’s Theorem by Clifford Algebra Valued Local Variables
It is shown that Bell’s theorem fails for the Clifford algebra valued local realistic variables. This is made evident by exactly reproducing quantum mechanical expectation value for the EPR-Bohm type spin correlations observable by means of a local, deterministic, Clifford algebra valued variable, without necessitating either remote contextuality or backward causation. Since Clifford product of...
متن کاملSimple refutation of Joy Christian’s simple refutation of Bell’s simple theorem
I point out a simple algebraic error in Joy Christian’s refutation of Bell’s theorem. In substituting the result of multiplying some derived bivectors with one another by consultation of their multiplication table, he confuses the generic vectors which he used to define the table, with other specific vectors having a special role in the paper, which had been introduced earlier. The result shoul...
