This image was uploaded in a raster image format such as PNG, GIF, or JPEG. However, it contains information that could be stored more efficiently and/or accurately in the SVG format, as a vector graphic.
If possible, please upload an SVG version of this image. After doing so, please replace all instances of the previous version throughout Wikipedia (noted under the “File links” header), tag the old version with {{Vector version available|NewImage.svg}}, and remove this tag. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload. For assistance with converting to SVG, please see the Graphics Lab.

[edit] Note on SVG graphics format

The above image is an Inkscape conversion to PNG from the SVG file located here: Omega-Point-Multiverse.svg . Wikipedia's software currently doesn't render this file at all well (whereas Inkscape and the GIMP do), hence the reason the PNG was uploaded. I mention this because I see that the "ConverttoSVG" tag has been added to this page, so I wanted to let others know of the existence of said SVG file.

[edit] Summary

I am the author. This is a diagram of the multiverse formulation of the Omega Point (although note that the physics of the actual Omega Point aren't dependant on a multiverse conception).

Based upon the below works by Prof. Frank J. Tipler:
