Half-space may refer to:
*
Half-space (geometry)
In geometry, a half-space is either of the two parts into which a plane divides the three-dimensional Euclidean space. If the space is two-dimensional, then a half-space is called a ''half-plane'' (open or closed). A half-space in a one-dimension ...
, either of the two parts into which a plane divides Euclidean space
** (Poincaré)
Half-space model, a model of hyperbolic geometry using a Euclidean half-space
**
Siegel upper half-space
In mathematics, the Siegel upper half-space of degree ''g'' (or genus ''g'') (also called the Siegel upper half-plane) is the set of ''g'' × ''g'' symmetric matrices over the complex numbers whose imaginary part is positive definite. It ...
, a set of complex matrices with positive definite imaginary part
*
Half-space (punctuation), a spacing character half the width of a regular space
*
Half-space model (oceanography)
Seafloor spreading, or seafloor spread, is a process that occurs at mid-ocean ridges, where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity and then gradually moves away from the ridge.
