- Abstract: The anti self-adjoint operators of imaginary coordinate and momentum,
together with the self-adjoint operators of real coordinate, momentum, energy
and time are used in construction of the quantum field theory in operator form.
This formalism, being free of many dubious mathematical situations
characteristic to the standard treatment of quantum fields, is applied in
formulation of the new gauge condition for electromagnetic field that describes
the absence of the scalar and longitudinal photons. Proposed formalism offers
adequate theoretical framework for proper description of the multicomponent
fields, including quantum gravity.

Subspaces of histories consistent with the dynamics of a particular theory are defined by a direct quantum generalization of the corresponding classical action.
The diagonalization of such quantum actions enables us to recover the predictions of conventional quantum mechanics and reveals an extended unitary equivalence between all physical theories.
