论文摘要
规律理论是一种哲学观点,即自然法则只是描述,也就是说,自然法则不统治世界。此外,根据规律理论,自然法则的数量可能是无限的,因此,所有对一切理论的尝试都注定要失败。在这里,我提出了一种特殊或有限的规律理论。关于该理论的著名版本的主要区别在于有效性范围和自然法则的规模。自然定律应该仅在可观察到的宇宙内以及某些能量和长度尺度内进行考虑。即便如此,我将规律性理论应用于多元宇宙场景。结果,与我们的世界相比,规律性的特殊理论仅支持两种类型的多元宇宙:那些具有不同独特事件和不同自然定律序列的序列,以及那些具有相同独特事件顺序的序列和独特事件相同的自然定律。后一种情况是某种永恒的复发或平行的永恒复发。
The theory of regularity is a philosophical perspective in which laws of nature are just descriptions, that is to say, laws of nature do not govern the world. Moreover, according to the theory of regularity, the number of laws of nature might be infinite, thus any attempt towards the theory of everything is doomed. Here I propose a special or restricted theory of regularity. The main difference as to the well-known version of that theory is both the range of validity and the scale of the laws of nature. Laws of nature ought to be considered just inside the observable universe and within certain energy and length scales. Even so I apply the theory of regularity to the multiverse scenario. As a consequence, the special theory of regularity supports only two types of multiverses by comparison with our world: those ones with a different sequence of unique events and different laws of nature and those ones with the same sequence of unique events and the same laws of nature instanced by the unique events. The latter case is some sort of eternal recurrence or a parallel eternal recurrence.
