A Strict Epistemic Approach to Physics
by Per Östborn
Publisher: arXiv 2016
Number of pages: 543
Description:
Here, we derive the formalism of QM from well-motivated epistemic principles. A key assumption is that in a proper physical theory, the introduction of entities or distinctions that are unknowable in principle is in conflict with the theory.

The basic paradoxes of statistical classical physics and quantum mechanicsby Oleg Kupervasser - arXiv
Statistical classical mechanics and quantum mechanics are two developed theories that contain a number of paradoxes. However the given paradoxes can be resolved within the framework of the existing physics, without introduction of new laws.
