Journey of Quantum Infinity

The same calculations that show the combinatorial inevitability of repeated worlds sldo show their trmendous separation in space time. Using numbers from a recent survey article in Scientific American, repetition of a 30 billion light year diameter observable universe would be expected to recur at a distance of ten raised to the power (ten raised to the power 118) meters. That number is sso large that you could replace meters by light years and still write the number the same.

Although we would expect recurrences of smaller volumes, such as solar systems or people, to occur at muah smaller distances, they would still be far beyond any expectation of trans spatial communication.

However, there is another possbility to consider. Suppose we have a region of space time A and congruent region B, over both of which the quantum wave function is identical. Is it conceivable that in quantum mechanics or some extension of quantum mechanics, the two wave functions might intersect in spite of their vast spatial separation. If so, this could have profound consequences upon our very lives and being.
