  2. Multiverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse

    On the other hand, some scientists, theories and popular works conceive of a multiverse in which the universes are so similar that humanity exists in many equally real separate universes but with varying histories. [95] There is a debate about whether the other worlds are real in the many-worlds interpretation (MWI) of quantum mechanics.

  3. Parallel universes in fiction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_universes_in_fiction

    A parallel universe, also known as an alternate universe, parallel world, parallel dimension, alternate reality, or alternative dimension, is a hypothetical universe co-existing with one's own, typically distinct in some way. [1] The sum of all potential parallel universes that constitute reality is often called the "multiverse".

  4. List of paradoxes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_paradoxes

    For example, some unicellular organisms have genomes much larger than that of humans. Cole's paradox: Even a tiny fecundity advantage of one additional offspring would favor the evolution of semelparity. Gray's paradox: Despite their relatively small muscle mass, dolphins can swim at high speeds and obtain large accelerations.

  5. Concurrent lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_lines

    For example, the first Napoleon point is the point of concurrency of the three lines each from a vertex to the centroid of the equilateral triangle drawn on the exterior of the opposite side from the vertex. A generalization of this notion is the Jacobi point. The de Longchamps point is the point of concurrence of several lines with the Euler line.

  6. Parallel novel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_novel

    A collection of parallel or derivative works based on Pride and Prejudice. A parallel novel is an in-universe (but often non-canonical) pastiche (or sometimes sequel) piece of literature written within, derived from, or taking place during the framework of another work of fiction by the same or another author with respect to continuity. [1]

  7. Parallel force system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_force_system

    In engineering, a parallel force system is a type of force system where in all forces are oriented along one axis. An example of this is a see saw . The children are applying the two forces at the ends, and the fulcrum in the middle gives the counter force to maintain the see saw in neutral position.

  8. Elliptic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_geometry

    Elliptic geometry is an example of a geometry in which Euclid's parallel postulate does not hold. Instead, as in spherical geometry , there are no parallel lines since any two lines must intersect. However, unlike in spherical geometry, two lines are usually assumed to intersect at a single point (rather than two).

  9. Parallel processing (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_processing...

    An example of the PDP model is illustrated in Rumelhart's book 'Parallel Distributed Processing' of individuals who live in the same neighborhood and are part of different gangs. Other information is also included, such as their names, age group, marital status, and occupations within their respective gangs.
