Equivalence between Bell's inequality and a constraint on stochastic field theories for EPR states

Abstract

A generalized form of EPR state is defined, embracing both classical and nonclassical states. It is shown that for such states, Bell's inequality is equivalent to a constraint on stochastic field theories. Thus, violation of Bell's inequality can be observed also for weak violation of stochastic field theories. The Schrodinger cat state is shown to be an example of this.
