Branch links a mathematical object to the field that studies it most closely. Wikipedia notes Fibonacci numbers are "strongly related to the golden ratio" and "closely related to Lucas numbers," ties that place the sequence within number theory and combinatorics at once. This dimension groups objects that belong to the same branch of mathematics.

Newton's theory of motion, culminating in his Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy) in 1687, modeled three Galilean laws of motion along with Newton's law of universal gravitation on a framework of absolute space-hypothesized by Newton as a physically real entity of Euclidean geometric structure extending infinitely in all directions-while presuming absolute time, supposedly justifying knowledge of absolute motion, the object's motion with respect to absolute space.
