zero-dimensional

Lacking all dimensions

Zero-dimensional describes something having no spatial extent—a point rather than a line, surface, or solid.

In mathematics, a zero-dimensional object has no length, width, or depth.

The term appears in physics and geometry where theoretical points serve as idealized locations: In the model, particles are treated as zero-dimensional.
