infinite divisibility (5TH CENTURY BC).
Concept first discussed by the Greek philosopher Zeno of Elea, who argued that infinite divisibility was a logical impossibility.
According to the theory, nothing is infinitely divisible as all actual entities must be finite if they are to exist at all.
To be infinitely divisible, an entity would have to be of infinite size.
