Continuum is a term used across many scientific disciplines to describe a system or phenomenon that can be regarded as a continuous, unbroken whole. In mathematics, a continuum commonly refers to a set that has the cardinality of the real numbers, such as the real line or any interval. The Continuum Hypothesis in set theory asks whether there are any cardinalities strictly between those of the integers and the real numbers.
In physics and engineering, continuum mechanics treats materials and fields—such as fluids, solids, and electromagnetism—as continuous
Continuum concepts also appear in topology, where a space is called a continuum if it is compact,
In biology and sociology, continuum sometimes denotes a spectrum of traits or social conditions without clear
Across these contexts, the continuum provides a useful abstraction that simplifies analysis by assuming seamless transitions,
