Abstract

In this paper we present a systematic formulation of some recent results concerning the algebraic demonstration of the two major no-hidden-variables theorems for N spin-1/2 particles. We derive explicitly the GHZ states involved and their associated eigenvalues. These eigenvalues turn out to be undefined for N=∞, this fact providing a new proof showing that the nonlocality argument breaks down in the limit of a truly infinite number of particles.
