In this work we investigate the problem of locality in theories inspired by Everetts RelativeState Theory. Specifically we address the Many Worlds by Deutsch, the Many Minds Theoryby David Albert and Barry Loewer and the Relational Theory by Simon Saunders, and we carryout our inquiry in view of recent work by Meir Hemmo and Itamar Pitowsky. Our aim is, on theone hand, to clarify the remarkably important points which have been put forward withinHemmo and Pitowsky work on the issue of the interpretation of probability in Many Minds, onthe other hand to argue against a remark on the Relational theory, stating that the analysiscarried out on the Many Minds interpretation could be applied, mutatis mutandis, to Saunderstheory.

Abstract
In this work we investigate the problem of locality in theories inspired by Everetts RelativeState Theory. Specifically we address the Many Worlds by Deutsch, the Many Minds Theoryby David Albert and Barry Loewer and the Relational Theory by Simon Saunders, and we carryout our inquiry in view of recent work by Meir Hemmo and Itamar Pitowsky. Our aim is, on theone hand, to clarify the remarkably important points which have been put forward withinHemmo and Pitowsky work on the issue of the interpretation of probability in Many Minds, onthe other hand to argue against a remark on the Relational theory, stating that the analysiscarried out on the Many Minds interpretation could be applied, mutatis mutandis, to Saunderstheory.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
