Paradoxical and, to the Uninitiated, Absurd
Diverging from classical Euclidean concepts, non-Euclidean geometry, birthed in the 19th century, explores alternative geometric systems. Its theoretical breakthroughs have been instrumental in reshaping fields from advanced physics to cosmology, enriching the comprehension of spatial constructs.

As-If
Originating from the works of philosopher Hans Vaihinger, the “As-If” approach facilitates the analysis of complex systems using hypothetical scenarios. This methodology, while not always reflecting true conditions, aids in rendering intricate concepts more comprehensible.

Principle of Least Action
In physics, the Principle of Least Action serves as a unifying framework that dictates a system’s dynamics through the minimization or stabilization of a specific integral, known as action. This principle offers valuable insights across various fields within physics.
