Hi Telmo Menezes
Perhaps you're right, but to my limited knowledge,
a quantum has infinite paths available between
points A and B without invoking another universe.
Once we are able to use (classical) information obtained in the other
quantum paths, like when doing a Fourier transform on some
superposition of many computations, like in a quantum computer, what
makes them different of other universes?
Bruno
So no problem.

Hi Roger,
In the one universe model, where does the extra computational power
of quantum computers come from?

Hi Telmo Menezes
IMHO more than one universe is unjustified.

Hi Roger,
I find it harder to believe in finite universes. Why the precise
number, whatever it is?

Hi Stephen P. King
It's easier to believe in salvation through faith or UFOs than
infinite universes.

Subject: About the Infinite Repetition of Histories in Space
Hi,
牋 I think this paper might be fodder for a nice discussion!

About the Infinite Repetition of Histories in Space
Francisco Jos Soler Gil, Manuel Alfonseca
(Submitted on 22 Jan 2013 (v1), last revised 23 Jan 2013 (this
version, v2))
This paper analyzes two different proposals, one by Ellis and
Brundrit, based on classical relativistic cosmology, the other by
Garriga and Vilenkin, based on the DH interpretation of quantum
mechanics, both of which conclude that, in an infinite universe,
planets and living beings must be repeated an infinite number of
times. We point to some possible shortcomings in the arguments of
these authors. We conclude that the idea of an infinite repetition
of histories in space cannot be considered strictly speaking a
consequence of current physics and cosmology. Such ideas should be
seen rather as examples of {\guillemotleft}ironic
science{\guillemotright} in the terminology of John Horgan.

Onward!
