Principle of superposition.

In quantum mechanics, states (and wavefunctions) can be added so particles can be described as occupying overlapping positions (their wavefunctions superpose). (Note: identical bosons can occupy the same quantum state; fermions cannot because of the Pauli exclusion principle.)
