The best way for you to prove just one example of rotational invariance of your model is to show that
give the same values as
A(alpha, lambda) and B(beta, lambda) are not unambiguous functions of alpha or beta respectively.
The function B(beta, lambda) is defined as Beta(delta,lambda) where delta= beta-polarization angle of incoming photon 2. Thus B(beta, lambda) depends on the setting alpha of P1. delta(beta) = beta-alpha-pi/2.
The rotational invariance comes from the fact that the polarization of photon 2 is perpendicular to the setting of the polarizer P1 for any setting of P1.

This is an error. Please drop this sentence.
