It is closer to the "psi of the universe" concept than anything else. Here, a "universe" means either a single observer moment, or a history (depending on context). Obviously psi refers to a single point in time, not history, and contains all information relating to observation (not the observer). > > > I thought you relied on an MWI model in which psi just evolves > unitarily and there are no projection operators instantiated by > consciousness? There are definitely projection operators involved - see the PROJECTION postulate from my book (the combination of multiverse variation and anthropic selection). What I don't rely on is the Born rule - that is derived. > > Brent > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Everything List" group. > To post to this group, send email to everything-list@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > everything-list+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/everything-list?hl=en. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof Russell Standish Phone 0425 253119 (mobile) Principal, High Performance Coders Visiting Professor of Mathematics hpco...@hpcoders.com.au University of New South Wales http://www.hpcoders.com.au ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
