Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The development of quantum physics throughout the twentieth century was one of the most important advances in human history, not only in technological innovation but also in our understanding of reality. We now know that quantum fields are the fundamental entities that fill the entire universe, responsible for all interactions observed in high-energy experiments. Furthermore, quantum theory contains intriguing phenomena that challenge our comprehension of how nature operates at high energy levels. The most counterintuitive implications of quantum theory have become the frontier in many contemporary lines of research. The areas where quantum physics plays a fundamental role are now broad and diverse. These include quantum entanglement, understanding entanglement in the presence of gravity and black holes, the study of algebraic and topological quantum field theory, the proposal of zero-class cobordisms in quantum gravity, and the ongoing effort to classify discrete and continuous symmetries as well as the existence of generalized and non-invertible symmetries in models beyond the standard model, such as string theory. Mathematical models are fundamental tools in all these endeavors, allowing us to construct consistent theories. The mathematics employed in physics has also evolved over recent decades to align with the latest physical theories. As a result, it is now common to advanced mathematical structures such as are bundles, groupoids, generalized cohomology and algebraic topology methods. Our understanding of quantum theories has grown hand-in-hand with the adoption of more elegant and structural mathematical frameworks.
The main purpose of this Special Issue of Axioms is to gather recent findings in mathematical physics with applications to quantum theory, including any of the aforementioned topics. We cordially invite you to present your recent contributions to this Special Issue.

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.
