Area of effect (often referred to as AoE) refers to mechanics -- things like skills, auras, and monster abilities -- that apply to an area of the ground (rather than targeting a particular character, monster, etc.).
Many AoE mechanics deal damage; but AoE mechanics can have other effects. For example, auras produce positive effects on allies within the area, and AoE curses like 
Temporal ChainsTemporal ChainsSpell, AoE, Duration, Curse, Hex

produce negative effects on enemies.
AoE mechanics can affect multiple characters or monsters within the area. But mechanics that can affect multiple characters or monsters aren't necessarily AoE mechanics. For example, 
Ice SpearIce SpearCritical, Spell, Projectile, Cold

targets a single monster rather than an area, so it is not an AoE skill, even though it creates piercing projectiles that can hit other nearby monsters as well.
Usage
The term "area of effect" or "AoE" is used in several different ways:
- It can describe the mechanic itself. ("

have more complicated areas of effect.
How modifiers to AoE sizes work
Support gems and other mechanics can increase or decrease the size of an area of effect. Almost all of these mechanics will add or subtract a percentage -- for example, "+50% area of effect". These percentages refer to the total amount of ground covered by the area of effect, not to the area of effect's radius or length or other dimensions. For example, a "+100% area of effect" modifier applied to Shock NovaShock NovaSpell, AoE, Lightning, Nova
Level: (1-20)
Cost: (12-23) Mana
Cast Time: 0.70 sec
Critical Strike Chance: 6.00%
Effectiveness of Added Damage: 190%
AoE Radius: 26 / 14Requires Level 28Casts a ring of Lightning around you, followed by a larger Lightning nova. Each effect hits enemies caught in their area with Lightning Damage.Deals (34-537) to (101-1610) Lightning Damage
+10% to Maximum Effect of Shock
Ring always Shocks
Additional Effects From 1-20% Quality:
+(0.5-10)% to Maximum Effect of ShockPlace into an item socket of the right colour to gain this skill. Right click to remove from a socket.'s circular area of effect will double the area of ground covered by the circle. The mathematics of that mean that the circle's radius and diameter will increase by around 40%. If multiple percentage-based modifiers apply to the same area of effect, they add together. For example, if a "+40% area of effect", "+20% area of effect", and "-30% area of effect" modifier all apply to the same area of effect, the area of effect's size will increase by a total of 30% (40+20-30).
A few mechanics apply a specific increase (usually expressed as an integer) to a dimension of the area of effect. For example, the skill gem level bonus for 
Caustic ArrowCaustic ArrowAttack, Projectile, AoE, Duration, Chaos, Bow
Level: (1-20)
Cost: (6-10) Mana
Attack Damage: (55-64)% of base
Effectiveness of Added Damage: (55-64)%
Projectile Speed: 3260
AoE Radius: 20Fires an arrow which deals chaos damage in an area on impact, and spreads caustic ground. Enemies standing on the caustic ground take chaos damage over time.Deals (8.8-1927.1) Base Chaos Damage per second

specifically grants a +0 to +6 increase to the Caustic Arrow area of effect's radius. These types of specific modifiers always apply before percentage-based modifiers are applied to the total area of effect. [confirmation needed] This means that dimension-specific modifiers tend to have a greater impact on the area of effect's final size.
Mechanics with both AoE and non-AoE aspects
Some mechanics' effects may have both AoE and non-AoE aspects. Any modifiers that apply to "area of effect" will only apply to the AoE aspect of these mechanics' effects.
- A good example is a
Fire TrapFire TrapTrap, Spell, Duration, AoE, Fire

gem. The trap has a trigger radius; this means that the trap will trigger if an enemy moves into a circular area of ground surrounding the trap. But this circular area does not create any effects on the enemy itself -- or on anything else within the area -- so it is not considered to be an "area of effect". The support gem will not increase the size of the trigger area. But when the trap triggers, it produces a circular area of flame that damages enemies within it. That is an "area of effect", and its size will be increased by the support gem. - Another good example is
