A measure of the multiverse [PDF]
Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2007 I review recent progress in defining a probability measure in the inflationary multiverse. General requirements for a satisfactory measure are formulated and recent proposals for the measure are clarified and discussed.

Hyperverse, 5-dimensional gravity and multiverses as nested Gogberashvili shells [PDF]
, 2022 We consider the Hyperverse as a collection of multiverses in 5-dimensional spacetime with gravitational constant $G$. Each multiverse in our simplified model is a bouquet of nested spherical Gogberashvili shells. If $g_k$ is the gravitational constant of a thin shell $S_k$ and $\varepsilon_k^{}$ its thickness then $G\sim\varepsilon_k^{}g_k^{}$.

New metrics for multiple testing with correlated outcomes
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023 When investigators test multiple outcomes or fit different model specifications to the same dataset, as in multiverse analyses, the resulting test statistics may be correlated.

Multiverse Predictions for Habitability: Element Abundances
Universe, 2022 We investigate the dependence of elemental abundances on physical constants, and the implications this has for the distribution of complex life for various proposed habitability criteria.

Understanding and Supporting Debugging Workflows in Multiverse Analysis [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in
Computing Systems (CHI '23), April 23-28, 2023, Hamburg, Germany. ACM, New
York, NY, USA, 2022 Multiverse analysis, a paradigm for statistical analysis that considers all combinations of reasonable analysis choices in parallel, promises to improve transparency and reproducibility. Although recent tools help analysts specify multiverse analyses, they remain difficult to use in practice.

Before spacetime: A proposal of a framework for multiverse quantum cosmology based on three cosmological conjectures [PDF]
Class. Quantum Grav. 36, 185001 (2019), 2018 The three cosmological conjectures to which our work refers are: the phenomenon called geodesic incompleteness, the physical gravitational $\theta_G$-term that would characterize the 1-parameter family of inequivalent vacua of quantum gravidynamics, and the hypothesis of multiversality, more specifically, a zero-energy multiverse.

Quantum Reports, 2023 The 2022 Tel Aviv conference on the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics highlighted many differences between theorists. A very significant dichotomy is between Everettian fission (splitting) and Saunders–Wallace–Wilson divergence. For fission,

QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT IN THE MULTIVERSE [PDF]
Журнал Экспериментальной и Теоретической Физики, 2014 In this paper it is shown that the quantum state of a multiverse made up of classically disconnected regions of the space-time, whose dynamical evolution is dominated by a homogeneous and isotropic fluid, is given by a squeezed state. These are typical quantum states that have no classical counterpart and, therefore, they allow us to analyze the ...

Multiverse Predictions for Habitability: Stellar and Atmospheric Habitability
Universe, 2022 Stellar activity and planetary atmospheric properties have the potential to strongly influence habitability. To date, neither have been adequately studied in the multiverse context, so there has been no assessment of how these effects impact the ...
