Some boundary-value problems for linear multidimensional second-order hyperbolic equations (Q1174889)

The author considers a second order differential operator \(L\) in a domain \(H\) in \(\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\), \(n\geq 1\), which is hyperbolic with respect to the last variable. The domain \(H\) is bounded by the hyperplane \(x_{n+1}=0\) and by a characteristic hypersurface of \(L\). Suitable Darboux and Goursat problems for \(L\) in \(H\) are proved to be well-posed.
