We show that the projection postulate plays a crucial role in the discussion on the so called quantum nonlocality, in particular in the EPR-argument. We stress that the original von Neumann projection postulate was crucially modified by extending it to observables with degenerate spectra (the Luders postulate) and we show that this modification is highly questionable from a physical point of view, and it is the real source of quantum nonlocality. The use of the original von Neumann postulate eliminates this problem: instead of action at the distance-nonlocality, we obtain a classical measurement nonlocality. It seems that EPR did mistake in their 1935-paper: if one uses correctly von Neumann projection postulate, no ``elements of reality can be assigned to entangled systems. Our analysis of the EPR and projection postulate makes clearer Bohrs considerations in his reply to Einstein.

We show that paradoxical consequences of violations of Bells inequality are induced by the use of an unsuitable probabilistic description for the EPR-Bohm-Bell experiment. The conventional description (due to Bell) is based on a combination of statis
tical data collected for different settings of polarization beam splitters (PBSs). In fact, such data consists of some conditional probabilities which only partially define a probability space. Ignoring this conditioning leads to apparent contradictions in the classical probabilistic model (due to Kolmogorov). We show how to make a completely consistent probabilistic model by taking into account the probabilities of selecting the settings of the PBSs. Our model matches both the experimental data and is consistent with classical probability theory.
Given an ensemble of systems in an unknown state, as well as an observable $hat A$ and a physical apparatus which performs a measurement of $hat A$ on the ensemble, whose detailed working is unknown (black box), how can one test whether the Luders or von Neumann reduction rule applies?
Entanglement is the defining feature of quantum mechanics, and understanding the phenomenon is essential at the foundational level and for future progress in quantum technology. The concept of steering was introduced in 1935 by Schrodinger as a gener
alization of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox. Surprisingly, it has only recently been formalized as a quantum information task with arbitrary bipartite states and measurements, for which the existence of entanglement is necessary but not sufficient. Previous experiments in this area have been restricted to the approach of Reid [PRA 40, 913], which followed the original EPR argument in considering only two different measurement settings per side. Here we implement more than two settings so as to be able to demonstrate experimentally, for the first time, that EPR-steering occurs for mixed entangled states that are Bell-local (that is, which cannot possibly demonstrate Bell-nonlocality). Unlike the case of Bell inequalities, increasing the number of measurement settings beyond two--we use up to six--dramatically increases the robustness of the EPR-steering phenomenon to noise.
Based on his extension of the classical argument of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen, Schrodinger observed that, in certain quantum states associated with pairs of particles that can be far away from one another, the result of the measurement of an obser
vable associated with one particle is perfectly correlated with the result of the measurement of another observable associated with the other particle. Combining this with the assumption of locality and some no hidden variables theorems, we showed in a previous paper [11] that this yields a contradiction. This means that the assumption of locality is false, and thus provides us with another demonstration of quantum nonlocality that does not involve Bells (or any other) inequalities. In [11] we introduced only spin-like observables acting on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. Here we will give a similar argument using the variables originally used by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen, namely position and momentum.
The appearance of the spin-1/2 and spin-1 representations in the Frieden-Soffer extreme physical information (EPI) statistical approach to the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm (EPR-Bohm) experiment is shown. In order to obtain the EPR-Bohm result, in add
ition to the observed structural and variational information principles of the EPI method, the condition of the regularity of the probability distribution is used. The observed structural information principle is obtained from the analyticity of the logarithm of the likelihood function. It is suggested that, due to the self-consistent analysis of both information principles, quantum mechanics is covered by the statistical information theory. The estimation of the angle between the analyzers in the EPR-Bohm experiment is discussed.
