    "abstract": "Influence of associative delusions (AD) onto development of physics and\nmathematics is investigated. The associative delusion (AD) means a mistake,\nappearing from incorrect associations, when a property of one object is\nattributed to another one. Examples of most ancient delusions are: (1)\nconnection of the gravitation field direction with a preferred direction in\nspace (instead of the direction towards the Earth centre), that had lead to the\nantipode paradox, (2) statement that the Earth (not the Sun) is the centre of\nthe planetary system, that had lead to the Ptolemaic doctrine. Now these ADs\nhave been overcame. In the paper one considers four modern and not yet got over\nADs, whose corollaries are false space-time geometry in the micro world and\nmost of problems and difficulties of the quantum field theory (QFT). One shows\nthat ADs have a series of interesting properties: (1) ADs appear to be\nlong-living delusions, because they are compensated partly by means of\nintroduction of compensating (Ptolemaic) conceptions, (2) ADs influence on\nscientific investigations, generating a special pragmatic style (P-style) of\ninvestigations resembling experimental trial and error method, (3) acting on\ninvestigations directly and via P-style, ADs direct the science development\ninto a blind alley. One considers concrete properties of modern ADs and the\nmethods of their overcoming. From viewpoint of application the paper is an\nanalysis of mistakes, made in the quantum theory development. One analyses\nreasons of these mistakes and suggests methods of their correction.",
