Description
I will describe the theory for the dynamic selection of the
initial
conditions of the universe from the landscape and its
observational
predictions. This theory allows for the wavefunction of
the universe to
propagate through the landscape while including
decoherence, thereby
unifying the many worlds interpretation of quantum
mechanics with the
landscape of string theory into a single mutliverse. Four
of its
predictions have been recently succesfully tested.
