  2. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    Growth like this is observed in real-life activity or phenomena, such as the spread of virus infection, the growth of debt due to compound interest, and the spread of viral videos. In real cases, initial exponential growth often does not last forever, instead slowing down eventually due to upper limits caused by external factors and turning ...

  3. Biological exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_exponential_growth

    Biological exponential growth is the unrestricted growth of a population of organisms, occurring when resources in its habitat are unlimited. [1] Most commonly apparent in species that reproduce quickly and asexually , like bacteria , exponential growth is intuitive from the fact that each organism can divide and produce two copies of itself.

  5. Universal Paperclips - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Paperclips

    Through the power of exponential growth, the player's horde of probes overwhelms the Drifters while devouring the remaining matter in the universe to produce a final tally of 30 septendecillion (3 × 10 55) paperclips, and ending the game. The player can restart in a parallel universe "next door" or a simulated universe "within". In the version ...

  6. Cosmic inflation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_inflation

    In an expanding universe, energy densities generally fall, or get diluted, as the volume of the Universe increases. For example, the density of ordinary "cold" matter (dust) declines as the inverse of the volume: when linear dimensions double, the energy density declines by a factor of eight; the radiation energy density declines even more ...

  7. Multiverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse

    Philosopher Philip Goff argues that the inference of a multiverse to explain the apparent fine-tuning of the universe is an example of Inverse Gambler's Fallacy. [ 61 ] Stoeger, Ellis, and Kircher [ 62 ] : sec. 7 note that in a true multiverse theory, "the universes are then completely disjoint and nothing that happens in any one of them is ...

  8. Eternal inflation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_inflation

    Eternal inflation is a hypothetical inflationary universe model, which is itself an outgrowth or extension of the Big Bang theory.. According to eternal inflation, the inflationary phase of the universe's expansion lasts forever throughout most of the universe.

  9. Accelerating expansion of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerating_expansion_of...

    Thus, an accelerating universe took a longer time to expand from 2/3 to 1 times its present size, compared to a non-accelerating universe with constant ˙ and the same present-day value of the Hubble constant. This results in a larger light-travel time, larger distance and fainter supernovae, which corresponds to the actual observations.
