holesempty

Holesempty is a term that appears in online discussions, speculative fiction, and some puzzle and game design contexts. It is not tied to a single canonical work or discipline, and its meaning varies with usage. Broadly, holesempty signals a state or space in which holes or voids are absent or minimized.

Origin and interpretation

The word combines holes and empty, yielding a compact label for concepts involving absence, voids, or gaps. In informal mathematical chatter, some participants use holesempty to describe a region considered hole-free, though this is not standard terminology in topology. In creative or game contexts, holesempty often refers to environments or narratives that are designed to have no gaps, openings, or cavities, or to explore the idea of emptiness as a thematic motif.

Applications in discourse

Within puzzle communities, holesempty may serve as a constraint or objective—constructing or identifying spaces that lack conventional holes. In art and storytelling, it can evoke surreal or paradoxical settings where the expectation of holes is contradicted by the design or premise. Because it is informal, the term relies on contextual cues rather than a fixed definition.
