An '''immersion''' is the process of taking an shape with a [[net space]] of less than its [[bounding space]] and altering it so that its bounding space is reduced but does not become less than its net space. For example, immersing an [[uncapped]] [[cylinder]] in two dimensions gives a disk with a [[pocket]].

An immersion is the process of taking an shape with a net space of less than its bounding space and altering it so that its bounding space is reduced but does not become less than its net space. For example, immersing a 1-frame cylinder in two dimensions gives two circles, which may be concentric, intersecting or disjoint.
