Noncommutative Causality in Algebraic Quantum Field Theory
In the paper it will be argued that embracing noncommuting common causes in the causal explanation of quantum correlations in algebraic quantum field theory has the following two beneficial consequences: it helps (i) to maintain the validity of Reichenbach’s Common Causal Principle and (ii) to provide a local common causal explanation for a set of correlations violating the Bell inequality.
