The Continuity Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

A new interpretation of quantum mechanics in which the existence of the world is not defined by the proliferation of branches (as in the Everett interpretation), nor by stochastic collapse, but by causal and informational continuity across time. A ``world'' is constituted by a sequence of physical states whose mutual informational overlap secures temporal persistence. Measurement outcomes do not correspond to the birth of multiple worlds but to the reinforcement of a single causal chain stitched together by redundant records. Entropy growth reflects the broadening of compatible microstates within this continuity. This Continuity Interpretation preserves the unitary dynamics of quantum mechanics, explains the stability of observed reality, and reframes probability as the measure of continuity-preserving outcomes.

Abstract

A new interpretation of quantum mechanics in which the existence of the world is not defined by the proliferation of branches (as in the Everett interpretation), nor by stochastic collapse, but by causal and informational continuity across time. A ``world'' is constituted by a sequence of physical states whose mutual informational overlap secures temporal persistence. Measurement outcomes do not correspond to the birth of multiple worlds but to the reinforcement of a single causal chain stitched together by redundant records. Entropy growth reflects the broadening of compatible microstates within this continuity. This Continuity Interpretation preserves the unitary dynamics of quantum mechanics, explains the stability of observed reality, and reframes probability as the measure of continuity-preserving outcomes.
