Hi Richard,
I was just writing up a brief sketch... I too am interested in a
selection rule that yields one state at a time. What I found is that
this is possible using an itterated tournament where the "winners" are
the selected states. We don't eliminate the multiverse per se as serves
as the collection or pool or menu of prior possible states that are
selected from. What is interesting about Pratt's idea is that in the
case of the finite and forgetful residuation the menu itself is not
constant, it gets selected as well.

Stephan,
Thanks for telling me what bisimulation means.
I was interested in that choosing only one state at a time eliminates
the multiverse.

Seems that divine intervention may be an assumption. I wonder who
does the choosing. May I suggest Godellian consciousness?
Dear Richard,
No need for divine intervention! I am not sure what "Godellian
consciousness" is. Let me comment a bit more on this part of
Pratt's idea. The choice mechanism that I have worked out uses a
tournament styled system. It basically asks the question: what is
the most consistent Boolean solution for the set of observers
involved? It seems to follow the general outlines of pricing
theory and auction theory in economics and has hints of Nash
equilibria. This makes sense since it would be modeled by game
theory. My conjecture is that quantum entanglement allows for the
connections (defined as bisimulations) between monads to exploit
EPR effects to maximize the efficiency of the computations such
that classical signaling is not needed (which gets around the "no
windows" rule). This latter idea is still very much unbaked.
