Quantum nonlocality and quantum dynamics
  We argue that usual quantum statics and the dynamical equivalence of mixed quantum states to {\it probabilistic mixtures}suffice to guarantee a linear evolution law, which necessarily complies with the no-signaling condition. Alternatively, there are nonlinear dynamical extensions that treat mixed states as {\it elementary mixtures} and evolve {\it every}pure state linearly and unitarily. But if all {\it entangled} pure states evolve linearly, then elementary mixtures cannot evolve nonlinearly without challenging quantum locality. Conversely, any such extension that is relativistically well behaved demands a nonlinear evolution [decoherence] of pure entangled states. Wherefrom follows that the linear evolution of entangled pure states provides an unequivocal signature of linear quantum dynamics.
