Comment on ‘Single particle nonlocality with completely independent reference states’

Abstract

We comment on the purported violation of local realism, by a single photon induced correlations between homodyne detectors, which one can find in: (2008) New J. Phys. 10 113024 [arXiv: 0807.0109 ]. The claim is erroneous, due to a calculational mistake. As the result is the basis of other claims in the paper, they are unsubstantiated.
