The propagation of photon in a dielectric may be described with the help of the scalar and vector potentials of the medium. The main novelty of the paper is that the concept of the vector potential (which is connected with the velocity of the medium) can be extended to relativistic velocities of the medium. The position-dependent photon wave function was used to describe the propagation of the photon. The new concepts of the velocity of photon as particle and the photon mass in the dielectric medium were proposed.
