>>Overlap in multiple dimensions is simply the AND of overlap in each dimension. Presumably just for boxes aligned with the axes (or some other condition?)? EG two lines can have x’s in common and y’s but not overlap if they are sloped at some angle.

Right, axis-aligned bounding boxes. Most collision detection systems use axis-aligned bounding boxes as a filter. Then more detailed algorithms are used on possibly-colliding objects.
