Abstract

This work is an attempt to justify Born's rule within the framework of the many-minds interpretation seen as a development of the many-worlds interpretation of Everett. More precisely, here we develop a unitary model of many-minds based on the work of Albert and Loewer Synthese textbf{77}, 195 (1988). At the difference of previous models ours is not genuinely stochastic and dualistic and also involves some classical-like randomness concerning the initial conditions of the Universe. We also compare the present method for recovering Born's rule with previous works based on decision theory à la Deutsch, Wallace, and envariance à la Zurek and show how these approaches are connected to our model
