A process of adjusting game objects position after collision.

Note that collision resolution is a different and independent from collision detection process.

Say in next update cycle you detect that two objects collide (using collision detection process), so one of the objects is partially "inside" of the other object. You need to resolve this sutiation in some way that objects do not intersect. This can be done in many different ways, and that is the process of collision resolution.
