A speculative physical hypothesis proposing that the universe’
s fundamental parameters – physical constants, laws, and
even dimensions – are not fixed but can be altered under certain extreme conditions. Unlike multiverse theories (which posit many static universes), malleable universe theory suggests that a single universe can reconfigure itself, perhaps through advanced technology, cosmic‑scale events, or unknown
meta‑laws. It opens the
door to “rewriting
physics” from within, and is often explored in science fiction as a solution to the fine‑tuning problem or as a pathway to ultimate cosmic engineering.
