  2. Many-worlds interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-worlds_interpretation

    The quantum-mechanical "Schrödinger's cat" paradox according to the many-worlds interpretation.In this interpretation, every quantum event is a branch point; the cat is both alive and dead, even before the box is opened, but the "alive" and "dead" cats are in different branches of the multiverse, both of which are equally real, but which do not interact with each other.

  3. Many-minds interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-minds_interpretation

    An alternative interpretation, the Many-worlds Interpretation, was first described by Hugh Everett in 1957 [3] [4] (where it was called the relative state interpretation, the name Many-worlds was coined by Bryce Seligman DeWitt starting in the 1960s and finalized in the 1970s [5]). His formalism of quantum mechanics denied that a measurement ...

  4. H. Dieter Zeh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._Dieter_Zeh

    Zeh's research revolves around the fundamental problems of quantum mechanics since the 1960s, in particular with Hugh Everett III's many-worlds interpretation. Zeh was one of the developers of the many-minds interpretation of quantum mechanics [3] and the discoverer of decoherence, first described in his seminal 1970 paper. [4]

  5. Hugh Everett III - Wikipedia

    Meanwhile DeWitt, who had corresponded with Everett on the many-worlds / relative state interpretation when it was published in 1957, started editing an anthology on the many-worlds interpretation. In addition to the original articles by Everett and Wheeler, the anthology was dominated by Everett's 1956 paper "The Theory of the Universal ...

  6. Wigner's friend - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigner's_friend

    The various versions of the many worlds interpretation avoid the need to postulate that consciousness causes collapse – indeed, that collapse occurs at all. Hugh Everett III 's doctoral thesis " 'Relative state' formulation of quantum mechanics" [ 8 ] serves as the foundation for today's many versions of many-worlds interpretations.

  7. Multiverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse

    The quantum multiverse creates a new universe when a diversion in events occurs, as in the real-worlds variant of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. Holographic The holographic multiverse is derived from the theory that the surface area of a space can encode the contents of the volume of the region. Simulated

  8. Learning theory (education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_theory_(education)

    Learning theory describes how students receive, process, and retain knowledge during learning. Cognitive, emotional, and environmental influences, as well as prior experience, all play a part in how understanding, or a worldview, is acquired or changed and knowledge and skills retained.

  9. Born rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Born_rule

    A number of derivations have been proposed in the context of the many-worlds interpretation. These include the decision-theory approach pioneered by David Deutsch [11] and later developed by Hilary Greaves [12] and David Wallace; [13] and an "envariance" approach by Wojciech H. Zurek. [14] These proofs have, however, been criticized as circular ...
