On the nonreality of the PBR theorem

Abstract

The PBR theorem has been hailed as one of the most important theorems in the foundations of quantum mechanics (QM), , cf. E. Samuel Reich, "Quantum theorem shakes foundations", Nature (2011). Here we argue that the special measurement, used by Pusey et al. to derive the theorem, is nonexisting from the Einsteinian view on QM.
