Multiverse Theory
Multiverse Theory suggests that there are multiple, perhaps infinite, universes that exist in parallel with our own. Each universe may have different laws of physics and constants.
I. Time
| Extent | Infinite |
| Ontological Status | Substantival |
| Grain | Continuous |
| Freedom | Non-Deterministic |
| Traversability | Branching |
| Dimensionality | N |
| Direction | Multi-directional |
Time is substantival and infinite — it extends across an infinite ensemble of parallel universes. Time's traversability is branching: at every quantum event, the timeline splits into divergent branches, each equally real. Direction is multi-directional across the multiverse as a whole, even if each individual branch experiences uni-directional flow. Time is continuous and N-dimensional when the full landscape of branching timelines is considered.
II. Space
| Extent | Infinite |
| Ontological Status | Substantival |
| Curvature | Curved |
| Dimensionality | N |
| Locality | Non-local |
Space is substantival, infinite, and curved — it encompasses the totality of parallel universes, each potentially with different spatial geometries and physical constants. Space is non-local: quantum entanglement connects spatially separated regions, and the multiverse itself may have extra spatial dimensions beyond the three we observe.
III. Matter
| Extent | Infinite |
| Ontological Status | Substantival |
| Conservation | Conserved |
| Dimensionality | N |
| Locality | Non-local |
Matter is substantival and infinite across the multiverse — each branch contains its own material configuration, and the total amount of matter across all branches is unlimited. Conservation holds within each branch but need not hold across the multiverse as a whole. Matter is non-local: entanglement and branching connect material states across separated regions of the multiverse.
IV. Observer
| Time Instance | Multiple |
| Space Instance | Multiple |
| Extent of Knowledge | Immediate |
| Retainment of Knowledge | Immediate |
| Physicality | Embodied |
| Agency | Passive |
| Number | Plural |
V. Energy
Energy is substantival and infinite across the multiverse — each quantum branching event creates new branches with their own energy budgets. Conservation is non-conserved globally because new branches continuously come into existence. Dispersibility is reversible in the sense that every possible energy configuration is realized somewhere in the multiverse.
VI. Information
Information is conserved across the multiverse — every quantum branching preserves all information. It is discrete because quantum events create distinct branches, each encoding a definite informational outcome.
