A manifold is an abstract mathematical space which, in a close-up view, resembles the spaces described by Euclidean geometry.
Manifold may also refer to:
Science and engineering
- Manifold (engineering) an arrangement of pipes used to redistribute the flow of a fluid or gas, typically from a single inlet to a number of outlets or vice versa
- Hydraulic manifold, a component used to regulate fluid flow in a hydraulic system, thus controlling the transfer of power between actuators and pumps
- Manifold (scuba), in a scuba set, connects two or more diving cylinders, so that one diving regulator is fed by all the cylinders
- Manifold chemistry, a piece of apparatus used in chemistry to manipulate gases
- Vacuum manifold
- Manifold (magazine), magazine of the University of Warwick mathematical community
- Inlet manifold or "intake manifold", an engine part which supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders
- Exhaust manifold, an engine part which collects the exhaust gases from multiple cylinders into one pipe
