quantum mechanics - Is Shor's algorithm a demonstration of the many worlds interpretation?


David Deutsch is very fond of pointing out Shor's integer factorization algorithm is a demonstration of the many worlds interpretation. As he often asked, where else did all the exponentially many combinations happen?


Are there any other alternative interpretations of quantum mechanics which can explain Shor's algorithm, and the Deutsch-Jozsa and Simon's algorithm?
