Hugh Everett III · 1957 · Physics
Core Mechanism
Universal wave function with no collapse — all outcomes realized in branches
Kernel Engagements
Systematically negates the kernel’s organizing logic and makes the negation the argument.
Evidence
Everett's foundational commitment to refuse collapse as a physical event generates cascading structural consequences: universal branching, relative states, observer superposition, elimination of the measurement postulate as explanatory primitive.
Territory
Refuses collapse as a physical event; branches instead. The measurement problem is dissolved by refusing the premise that generates it. The refusal is the announced epistemological position.
Constitutive depth
Self-Constrains: The commitment to refuse collapse generates consequences Everett did not independently choose — the branching structure follows necessarily from the refusal.
Legibility
Exposed: The refusal is the announced structural position. Many-Worlds makes its epistemological move visible as the primary argument.
