Manifestly Lorentz covariant formulation of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen problem using the Tomonaga-Schwinger formalism

We show that the Tomonaga-Schwinger formalism in quantum field theory provides a manifestly Lorentz covariant description of an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlated state defined on a curved-space-like surface. This avoids the notion of a universal time and clearly demarcates between the completion of the measuring process on a member of an EPR pair and its nonlocal effect on the state of its partner. Being reciprocal and restricted to a spacelike surface, the latter is deterministic but not causal and is consistent with Lorentz invariance.
