I think two things are being confused. First, the laws of physics, second,
the laws of probability. A gas particle follow physical rules (movement,
bumping, thermal vibrations)

Hello everybody,
I read all your messages and I would like to say something about them. I

Finney and the demonstration that we are not in one of them is improper. If

I agree with everything you wrote about duplication...but I have to
take issue with your last point.

Hello Stathis and James,
In answer to the first question, does the multiverse inlude perfect
duplications of entire universes, the answer is yes with a but. Any
particular universe in it can be sliced up in any number of ways, just
as 1 = (1/n + 1/n + 1/n. n times) for any value of n.

I'm agree that informations are always subjective, but a physical or
matematical model should not be too. And perhaps the paradox I propose
is a four-order one. The problem in fact is that all the conclusions
we could think are consequence of the hypotesis of applying the

Thanks, Matt, yes it helps. It helps me see that the
math becomes problematic under the interpretations.
Arbitrary constraints tint and skew what comes out.

Dear Federico,
In a mature and open 'exploring community',
especially where people of different language
backgrounds are concerned about coming together,
the responsibility for extracting meaning and
ideas falls as much on the readers as the writers.

Well, based upon the vast vocabulary as evidenced by this incisive argument

Bush! Impressive indeed!
Cheers
Tegmark's multiverse theory doesn't make it appropriate to initiate -- or multiply --

Actually I wasn't thinking about physically impossible things happening
very rarely (QM) but only about regular physics vs probability of things
happening.
If you consider quantum mechanics you are right in an infinite universe
there could be areas in which physics just happens to work very
To repeat Tegmark's rhetorical question (and he's probably not the

Dear Mirai and Federico and Friends,
Could we cover the White Rabbit and Harry Potter universes by
considering that for a pair of systems to interact their individual
histories must not contradict each other? This, I think, would also cover
interactions between the MWI branches.

Assume I survive a car/plane crash which we assume could have many
different quantum outcomes including me (dead || alive)
Since I was the same person (entire life history) up until the

Hi there,
Hal, one nitpick about your comments:
In the case of Quantum Immortality, I don't think it's a matter of taste, or
interpretation. It is a theory that every one of us can and ultimately will
test. Granted, we will only be aware of a positive result, but,
nevertheless...
cheers,
It would seem that there are a finite number of ways to survive (or die in)
any given car accident. It that's the case, the number of many world
branches would be limited by this value. Taken longitudinally, it would
seem that the architecture of the world lines of these and similar events
