Bell Correlations Disclosed as Bivector Entanglement - Measurement and the Failure of Separable Vector Realism
Philip Lilien
Bell’s theorem is widely understood as demonstrating that quantum correlations cannot be explained by any theory of local hidden variables. The experimental violation of Bell inequalities has therefore often been interpreted as evidence for nonlocality or “spooky action at a distance.” This paper proposes a different geometric interpretation. It accepts Bell’s theorem as a decisive refutation of separable preassigned vector realism, but argues that entangled systems need not be modeled as pairs of particles carrying hidden local vector outcomes. Instead, the entangled state is interpreted as a nonseparable bivector coherence relation whose correlated vector outcomes are disclosed only through measurement. On this view, measurement is a basis-conditioned reduction from bivector structure to local vector registration. The standard singlet correlation E(a,b)=-a⋅b, including the Tsirelson bound S=2√2, is then interpreted as the scalar trace of a shared bivector relation rather than as the result of superluminal influence. The framework does not deny Bell’s theorem, Bell experiments, or quantum statistics. It instead reframes their ontological meaning: Bell violation marks the failure of separable vector completion, not the necessity of action at a distance.
