Well... its called the "many world interpretation" of quantum mechanics... but i think the ones who created this theory were a bit wrong. I wouldnt say the universe "branches", or "splits" every time a decision is taken. I would say always there were, there is, and always there will be all the possible universes with all the possible outcomes.
When a decision is taken, the univesre does not branch itself in two, one for each choice. Both universes, one for each choice, are already there. When we make a choice, we just choose what universe (from the two possible) we will percieve, and what universe we will ignore.
Usually our mind only can "understand" one universe at time, and thats why we think we did a choice. All the unending possibilities are there, but we only can percieve one of them at time.
