I would like to branch away temporarily, due to the Star Trek movie.
Is it the case in MWI, that a decision is made in Universe A
(destruction of the Kelvin). Before that event, the Universe, or at
least the causal part of it has a certain physical configuration.
Immediately after that event, Univ

This part at the end, proposing an empirical method of distinguishing
between MWI and single world interpretations and reminiscent of
quantum suicide experiments, is interesting:

I guess you are referring to the materialist MWI of QM, and not to the
idealist MWI of Arithmetic (often discuss
So,in terms of the many worlds interpretation, what is the standard
narrative explanation of the double slit experiment?
In particular, in "MWI-speak", what exactly happens when you know
which slit the photon has passed through that causes the interference

Also, what is the MW
Right, I copied and pasted it and it must have lost the superscript.
Thanks for catching that.

Hopefully you meant 10^64, not 1064, which is not all that startling.

David Deutsch gives this convincing argument against a single world:
that one can't explain how quantum computers work without postulating
other universes.
The evidence for the multiverse, according to Deutsch, is equally
overwhelming. "Admittedly, it's indirect," he says. "But then, we can

Just comp predicts many worlds/histories and the fact they play a key
role in the statistics of experiences.
But with QM, many wor
I still do not see any arguments against what I read, that one
Universe fits observations better than the MWI.

I would say that position 2 fails to explain the observer too, you
have to actually explain the observer to claim that a position
explains the observer. B

Hi,
When I read quantum mechanics and listen to those invested in the many
places the mathematics leads, What strikes me is the extent to which the
starting point is mathematics. That is, the entire discussion is couched
as if the mathematics is defining what there is, rather than a mere
