Bohmian mechanics, Leggett inequality, realism and nonlocality
Very often it is said that the Bell inequality has ruled out the possibility of hidden variables (HV) in QM. This is incorrect since Bell inequality has ruled out local hidden variables: nonlocal HV ...

Why is Pilot Wave Theory nonlocal?
I have read that the Pilot Wave Theory is nonlocal and can therefore be excluded.
Why is the PW Theory nonlocal?
Isn't QM also nonlocal, as we can see it from entanglement?
I already googled the ...

Non-locality of the Madelung equations?
As far as I understand, the Madelung equations
$$
\frac{\partial \rho}{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot \rho \mathbf{u} = 0 \\
\frac{\partial \mathbf{u}}{\partial t} + \mathbf{u} \cdot \nabla \mathbf{u} = -\...

Does a pilot-wave theory need to be stochastic in a discrete space-time?
I have found an article about Bohmian mechanics on a lattice with discrete space and time, the link of which is given below:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.02883
Here the motion of quantum particles is ...

If Pilot Wave Theory is non-local, how does the pilot wave change over time?
My understanding is that Bohmian Mechanics (pilot wave theory) is non-local, meaning that effects propagate faster than light. Are these effects in fact instantaneous in that model? How would an ...

Does Hardy's paradox represent a proof against Bohm's interpretation of the quantum mechanics?
This is a thought-experiment, see "Quantum Mechanics, Local Realistic Theories, and Lorentz-Invariant Realistic Theories", Phys. Rev. Lett., Vol. 68, No. 20, page 2981, year 1992, that rules out local ...
