many worlds hypothesis -- of course there are several
MWHs, which is why talking about them generally is not
necessarily fruitful. They all as far as I am aware
explain the apparent fine tuning of the universe by
positing that this is one of many universes. Some go
a step further to reclaim deterministic physics by
positing that all quantum outcomes are realized and
that all universes split at every quantum event that
occurs in that universe into additional parallel
universes (pedantically, I think it would be more
accurate to describe them as branching universes
rather than parallel), realizing every possible
quantum outcome in relation to its probability of
occuring.
