Fra replied to the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua?.I now skimmed the youtube video and seeing how they argue, I am more convinced that I had some wishful thinking of that paper and the... -
Fra replied to the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua?.I thought my third paragraph made it clear, but there is another go before I'm lost for xmas days: This is related to the discussions...

Fra replied to the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua?.By "no preferred" vs "equivalence" observer/frame, I simply mean that the latter adds the assumption of existence of some information...
-
Fra replied to the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua?.The deep problem, and what I see as the extrapolation of the what if idea that there is no dS vacua, questions I think the constructing...

Fra replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.IMHO, one factor here about the the timescales of the difference proceses we talk about. Timescale of interactions; that are judged...

Fra replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.I get some flashbacks here from previous discussions. My take on the RQM relevance, based on analyzing rovelli and his various rqm...

Fra replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.It wasn't what i had in mind. There are no brains. I entertain a more holographic picture where the microstate of the agent/observer...

Fra replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.My main point was just a conceptual comment to "I don't see what it means for something that doesn't exist to interact" suggesting that...

Fra replied to the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua?.There are lots of books, i havent seen those the one I have is Itzykson & Zuber not sure how they differ, but thats a textbook...

Fra replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.Yes but this logic presumes an interpretation where the "quantum state" is a property of the observed system. The problem goes away if...

Fra replied to the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua?.Einstein also said "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler" Exactly how simple can somethig complex get? But...

Fra replied to the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua?.The question is how far to take this. MY thinkking is that abandoning the dS vaccum, although it can be seen as technical construct...

Fra reacted to mitchell porter's post in the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua? with
Like.
It turns out that the 500-page paper had a forerunner in 2000 that's just 100 pages, so it might be easier to read. :-) "de Sitter... -
Fra posted the thread Graduate Dasgupta et al., What is the alternative to a unique dS vacua? in Beyond the Standard Models.I thought I would start a thread, as as spinoff to perhaps highlight and contemplate of that the ideas in the paper mitchell porter...

Fra replied to the thread Graduate How to fix Relativistic QM so it's consistent?.Huge paper, I havent ready it through fully but skimmed parts of it it seems to me, to be a step in the right direction. One...
