Abstract:In the last decade, the theory on the Cauchy problem for hyperbolic equations has developed a little in the analysis of their characters. This article will aim to survey briefly the main point of the advance. Before doing so, we give a short historical remark. The notion of hyperbolic equation began from the characterization of the wave equation. In the present day, however, it comes to be understood as an algebraic and geometric characterization, for symbols of Hormander [7] were sharp as enough as a suffic… Show more
