Abstract
Quantum Darwinism describes the proliferation, in the environment, of multiple records of selected states of a quantum system. It explains how the fragility of a state of a single quantum system can lead to the classical robustness of states of their correlated multitude; shows how effective `wave-packet collapse' arises as a result of proliferation throughout the environment of imprints of the states of quantum system; and provides a framework for the derivation of Born's rule, which relates probability of detecting states to their amplitude. Taken together, these three advances mark considerable progress towards settling the quantum measurement problem.
> Then we might as well start to call all classical phenomena repetition codes All classical phenomena are repetition codes (e.g., https://arxiv.org/abs/0903.5082 ). And this is perfectly compatible with the meaning in communication theory, except that the symbols we're talking…
