Five-dimensional space

Geometric space with five dimensions A 2D orthogonal projection of a 5-cube A five-dimensional (5D) space is a mathematical or physical space that has five independent dimensions. In physics and geometry, such a space extends the familiar three spatial dimensions plus time (4D spacetime) by introducing an additional degree of freedom, which is often used to model advanced theories such as higher-dimensional gravity, extra spatial directions, or connections between different points in spacetime. Concepts Concepts related to five-dimensional spaces include super-dimensional or hyper-dimensional spaces, which generally refer to any space with more than four dimensions. These ideas appear in theoretical physics, cosmology, and science fiction to explore phenomena beyond ordinary perception. Important related topics include: 5-manifold — a generalization of a surface or volume to five dimensions. 5-cube — also called a penteract, a specific five-dimensional hypercube. Hypersphere — the generalization of a sphere to higher dimensions, including five-dimensional space. List of regular 5-polytopes — regular geometric shapes that exist in five-dimensional space.
