• Abstract: The Wigner function of a free quantum particle propagating on a plane is derived. Two options are discussed. First the particle with fixed components of the momentum is mentioned. Then the particle of given energy and angular momentum is considered. The analysis does not refer to the Hilbert space formulation of the problem at all. One starts from a choice of coordinates on the symplectic space $(\mathbb{R}^{4},\,\omega)$ suitable for representation of eigenstates of the discussed particle. Then the Moyal $\star_{(\text{M})}$ -- product on the phase space is derived with the use of the Fedosov algorithm adapted to curvilinear coordinates on a flat phase space. Next the eigenvalue equations for the Wigner eigenfunction are solved. Finally the physically acceptable solutions are identified.

  We show that in the limit one obtains the one-body Hamiltonian for the light particle subject to $N$ (non-local) point interactions placed at fixed positions. We will verify that such non-local point interactions do not exhibit the ultraviolet pathologies that are present in the case of standard local point interactions.

• Theory of Complex Particle without Extra Dimensions [0.0]
  Critical dimension of the complex particle in Minkowski spacetime is $D = 4$, while $D = 2, 4$ or $6$ are permitted in Euclid spacetime. The origin of the restriction to the dimension is the existence of tertiary constraint in the canonical theory, quantization.

  We present a new interpretation of quantum mechanics, called the double-scale theory. It is based on the simultaneous existence of two wave functions in the laboratory reference frame. The external wave function corresponds to a field that pilots the center-of-mass of the quantum system. The internal wave function corresponds to the interpretation proposed by Edwin Schr"odinger.
