Title: Assumptions of Physics overview: Classical mechanics and infinitesimal reducibility

Abstract: We briefly show how classical mechanics can be rederived and better understood as a consequence of three assumptions: infinitesimal reducibility, deterministic and reversible evolution, and kinematic equivalence. This work is an overview of some of the results of Assumptions of Physics, a project that aims to identify a handful of physical principles from which the basic laws can be rigorously derived (see this https URL ).
