Have you meant that the Universal Dovetailer will act for such a
situation according to Poincaré recurrence?
The UD will do that an infinity of times, given that the Poincaré
recurrence is a computable process. But the physical laws are sum on
first person views, based on a continuum of histories, so to relate
thermodynamic to the UD is certainly not obvious at all. The UD is
just a way to provide the minimal third person ontology (the
'everything') needed when we assume mechanism, and its role is to
build a mathematical formulation of the mind-body problem (if only to
illustrate that science has not yet choose between Plato and
Aristotle).
Let me write down how I understand this. The 3rd person view gives us a
complete Universe of numbers and the 1st person view perceives just a
part of it. Is this correct?
