Second law of thermodynamics?? If energy were not bounded from below, the first law would not make much sense. --128.214.2.137 (talk) 08:49, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

message: Static Universes are a result of absolute unitarity, but aren't actual.
::: unitarity is perceived as if it was maintained only if a very controlled experiment lasts shortly and if the non neutral distribution of measurement deviations are not strong enough

thread_title:  [[quantum decoherence]] acts against [[unitarity]] 

message: # when the system isn't closed-confined (the observable Universe isn't closed, neither the actual Universe, even if it has edges {of course it hasn't, or more accurately it has maximum probabilistic uncertainty edges in respect to an observer, it means after that edge any possible arrangement is accepted} they never reach zero density)
# when quantum noise accumulates
# when dark energy acts (but some claim that dark energy is a unitarity violation, a minor statistical violation for our Universe, but a future Big Bang cause, because it accumulates thus grows in magnitude)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:587:410D:D600:8C45:C97D:86A8:51F4 (talk) 11:22, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  The impact of [[unitarity]] on [[gravity]] 

message: The section Implications of unitarity on measurement results contains this quote:
Should this not be true regardless of which interpretation of quantum mechanics that we may allow ourselves to use? (As long as the interpretation does not alter the "core theory" itself, but only adds to it.) That is, why is the many-worlds interpretation mentioned in particular here? Also, when Bob meets Alice, Bob could just tell Alice he measured the qubits before Alice got to do it, and then it would be clear to Alice why she found herself with an unexpected result? Most interpretations would accept that as an answer?? Maybe I am misunderstanding it?  · · · Omnissiahs hierophant (talk) 01:09, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: It starts with unitarity, attempts at doing a counter-example (quote: "This point is further stressed by a hypothetical counter-example: Consider a case of non-unitarity"), but *instead* trails off... and ends up with bashing the many-worlds interpretation? This needs to be rewritten! Unitarity comes from the Kologorovs 2nd axiom (all probabilities summed together is 100% of all outcomes, so the vector length is 1), AND/OR from Unitary operators + Born's rule... Instead of trailing off, maybe one could show what happens if one is allowed to have e.g. 102% probability to be in a certain state? Or something  · · · Omnissiahs hierophant (talk) 20:32, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
