Q
Undergrad Does 'fungibility' exist in physics?
As is well known, David Deutsch is a leading proponent of the interpretation of Quantum Mechanics stating that the universe somehow branches into all the possibilities represented by the wavefunction; an ever-evolving multiverse, known as the Many Worlds Interpretation(MWI) or Everettian...- QuantumConfusion

Q
Graduate Question about Many Worlds branching in Quantum Mechanics
I agree that the laws of physics still apply, naturally otherwise there'd be no reason to contemplate MWI in the first place. However, let's imagine a classical game of dice, the dice rolling are affected by the air surrounding them, the friction on the surface they land on, the strength by...- QuantumConfusion

Q
Graduate Question about Many Worlds branching in Quantum Mechanics
Isn't this incorrect? AFAIK, all non-zero probabilities are realized in at least 1 branch, so even though those instances are EXTREMELY rare, they (as long as they don't violate physics) are realized. The macro world is built up by the micro world. So for instance in one branch DrChinese would...- QuantumConfusion
