contents The constancy of the speed of light (the maximum velocity of interaction) is the second postulate of Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity. Currently, there is no correct theoretical proof of this constancy in all inertial frames of reference. This paper presents such a proof, demonstrating that quantum mechanics (quantum field theory) can only be formulated under the condition of the constancy of the speed of light in a vacuum. It has been established that this constancy is determined by the minimum energy of the particles. When this minimum is reached, two identical solutions emerge -- one with positive and one with negative energies. Thus, within the framework of classical physics, the existence of particles and antiparticles is demonstrated. It is shown that matter dominates over antimatter.
