Brent I've met WF's with variables of space and time. They don't have multiple points in 3 space. Please elaborate as to your meaning. AGThe wave function for two particles is a function of six spacial coordinates. Brent OK, simple, but how is this responsive to smitra's comment? AG
So a measurement on one can, assuming some conserved quantity entangling them, will have an effect on the other, even if the all the details of measurement and decoherence are included and the measurement is treated as Everett does. It still zeroes out cross terms in the density matrix that correspond ot violation of the conservation law and that entails changing the wave function at remote places.
