- In birational geometry, a minimal model of an algebraic variety is one for which the canonical line bundle is numerically effective, in particular as much has been blown-down as possible. It can also mean the Néron minimal model of an abelian variety or elliptic curve.
- In algebraic topology, the (Sullivan) minimal model of a differential graded algebra is used in rational homotopy theory.
- In endocrinology and diabetology, the term minimal model denotes a mathematical model of metabolic control of glucose homeostasis via insulin.
