> MWI is incompatible with the Born Rule
How do you figure that? It's easy enough. MWI from the Schrodinger equation says that every outcome happens, with probability one. The Born rule says that different outcomes have different probabilities. So MWI + Born gives two incompatible results for outcome probabilities. Hence Everett is incoherent -- incompatible with the Born rule. Bruce "The compulsion to replace the *simultaneous* happenings, as indicated directly by the theory, by *alternatives*, of which the theory is supposed to indicate the respective *probabilities*, arises from the conviction that what we really observe are particles - that actual events always concern particles, not waves." -Erwin Schroedinger, The Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. Dublin Seminars (1949-1955) and Other Unpublished Essays (Ox Bow Press, Woodbridge, Connecticut, 1995), pages 19-20. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
