Symmetric derivation of singlet correlations in a quaternionic 3-sphere model

Using the powerful language of geometric algebra, we present an observationally symmetric derivation of the strong correlations predicted by the entangled singlet state in a deterministic and locally causal model, usually also referred to as a local-realistic model, in which the physical space is assumed to be a quaternionic 3-sphere, or $S^3$, available as the spatial part of a solution of Einstein's field equations of general relativity, and compare it in quantitative detail with Bell's local-realistic model for the singlet correlations set within a flat Euclidean space ${\mathrm{I\!R}^3}$. Since the quantitatively detailed expressions of relative-angle-dependent probabilities of observing measurement outcomes for Bell's local model do not seem to have been fully articulated before, our novel analysis exploiting the non-commutative properties of quaternions, in addition to allowing the comparison with the quaternionic 3-sphere model, may also provide useful comparisons for other less compelling local-realistic models, such as those relying on retrocausality or superdeterminism. Apart from the conservation of zero spin angular momentum, the key attribute underlying the strong singlet correlations within $S^3$ in comparison with Bell's local model turns out to be the spinorial sign changes intrinsic to quaternions that constitute the 3-sphere. In addition, we also discuss anew a macroscopic experiment that can, in principle, test our 3-sphere hypothesis.
