I mean the inflationary universe, and perhaps some of the string
multiverse as well. Definitely not the many-worlds interpretation of
quantum mechanics.  There still seems to be some controversy about
whether the gravitational effects of other universes should be or have
been detected.  Again, those who claim that those effects should be
but haven't been discovered are doing the right thing by trying to
generate testable predictions based on the physics of the multiverse.
