As we know, there is a serious contradiction between nonlocal indeterminacy of quantum theory and local reality of special relativity, specifically reflected in the superluminal propagation of quantum states of an entangled electron pair. This problem probably comes from the wave-function assumption: The wave function collapses instantly when a measurement is made. I wonder, how is the problem solved in QFT? The fields of electron and positron disappear instantly when they annihilate?
