The Wigner representation formalism is applied to investigating the effect of the momentum-coordinate commutation relation ~n the d.c. and Hall conductivities of a system of noninteracting electrons moving in a· potential :field of randomly distributed impurities. The conductivities are expanded in powers of A and the secondand fourth-order terms are shown to vanish within the Born approximation, as far as the expansion is reasonable. This situation is discussed in comparison with the result of the kinetic theory.
