Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In this issue, we embark on a journey to explore innovative ideas and recent advances in the realms of quantum mechanics, quantum gravity, and mathematical physics. Our primary focus is on uncovering novel foundational concepts, including those that challenge the very bedrock of our understanding of physics. However, we also value contributions that build upon the existing consensus, offering fresh perspectives or enhancing current theories.
It is worth remembering that many concepts now considered central to physics began as speculative ideas with limited foundational support at the time of their initial publication and only later became part of the consensus. Of course, not all speculative ideas stand the test of time. Many have been proven incorrect or have simply faded into obscurity. As editors and referees, we are tasked with the challenging responsibility of discerning which speculative ideas have the potential to spark the next scientific revolution and which may lead to dead ends or be shown to be entirely wrong. Striking the right balance is crucial (but far from easy): being too permissive could dilute the rigor of our discourse, while being too conservative might stifle groundbreaking innovations.
In this issue, we invite you to join us in this delicate and exciting process of scientific discovery. We hope to inspire a dialogue that not only questions the current foundations of physics but also seeks to build upon them, in the hope of fostering a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the subatomic world as well as the universe.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Axioms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
