Abstract: Let $A_1(K)=Klanglex,y|yx-xy=1angle$ be the first Weyl algebra over a characteristic zero field $K$ and let $alpha$ be the exchange involution on $A_1(K)$ given by $alpha(x)=y$ and $alpha(y)=x$. The Dixmier conjecture of Dixmier (1968) asks: Is every algebra endomorphism of the Weyl algebra $A_1(K)$ an automorphism? The aim of this paper is to prove that each $alpha$-endomorphism of $A_1(K)$ is an automorphism. Here an $alpha$-endomorphism of $A_1(K)$ is an endomorphism which preserves the involution $alpha$. We also prove an analogue result for the Jacobian conjecture in dimension 2, called $alpha-J{C}_2$.
