The quantum electrodynamical theory of the two-photon transitions in hydrogenlike ions is presented. The emission probability for 2s 1/2 → 2γ( E 1) + 1s 1/2 transitions is calculated and compared to the results of the previous calculations. The emission probabilities 2p 1/2 → γ( E 1) + γ( E 2) + 1s 1/2 and 2p 1/2 → γ( E 1) + γ( M 1) + 1s 1/2 are also calculated for the nuclear charge Z values 1 ⩽ Z ⩽ 100. This is the first calculation of the two latter probabilities. The results are given in two different gauges.
