Minimal model

Minimal model may refer to:

Mathematics

• Minimal model (birational geometry), classification of algebraic varieties with the goal to construct a birational model of any complex projective variety which is as simple as possible.
• Minimal model (set theory), the minimal standard model of ZFC, part of the constructible universe.
• Minimal model (mathematical logic), a model <math>\mathcal{M}</math> for a formal theory <math>T</math> such that no substructure <math>\mathcal{M}'</math> of <math>\mathcal{M}</math> is a model for <math>T</math>.

Physics

• Minimal model (physics), two-dimensional conformal field theory with finitely many primary fields.
