• Abstract: We examine a criterion for relativistic covariance of nonlinear quantum field theory recently proposed by GPT-5 and published in Physics Letters B. We show that this criterion inadvertently tests a different property -- locality of the Hamiltonian -- and is insensitive to whether the theory is nonlinear. We recall the correct criterion, identified by Gisin and Polchinski thirty-five years ago, and reformulate their result in field-theoretic language.

  Causal non-linear theories have the unavoidable feature that their quantum effects are dramatically sensitive to the full physical spread of the quantum state of the system. We set a stringent limit of $5.4times 10-12$ on the magnitude of the unitless scaling factor $tildeepsilon_gamma$ for the predicted causal, non-linear perturbation.

  Quantum systems governed by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians with $PT$ symmetry are special in having real energy eigenvalues bounded below and unitary time evolution. We show how $PT$ symmetry may allow interpretations that evade ghosts and instabilities present in an interpretation of the theory within a Hermitian framework.

• Quantum Mechanical description of Bell's experiment assumes Locality [91.3755431537592]
  Bell's experiment description assumes the (Quantum Mechanics-language equivalent of the classical) condition of Locality. This result is complementary to a recently published one demonstrating that non-Locality is necessary to describe said experiment. It is concluded that, within the framework of Quantum Mechanics, there is absolutely no reason to believe in the existence of non-Local effects.

  A trajectory is not an outcome of a quantum measurement, in the sense that there is no observable associated with it. We show how to overcome this problem by considering a special case of our generic inequality that can be experimentally tested point-by-point in time.
