Abstract

The notions of “hole” and “vacuum” in various branches of science are considered. A philosophical generalization of these notions on the basis of examples from physics, history, and linguistics is presented. Some aspects of the further development of these notions in mathematical logic, thermodynamics of nuclear matter, and other branches of science are sketched.
