# Astrophysics: A point in space-time at which gravitational forces cause matter to have infinite density and infinitesimal volume, and space and time to become infinitely distorted.
# Mathematics: A point at which the derivative does not exist for a given function but every neighborhood of which contains points for which the derivative exists.
Another way of characterizing these behaviors might be to say that a singularity is the point where all hell breaks loose.
Yes, but singularity has some fairly sinister connotations that uniqueness doesn't:

Sort of like singularity.
