The authors are interested in the following Cauchy problem for an abstract Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation: \[ u_{tt}+ A(t)u+{B(t)\over t}\;u_t= f(t),\quad t\in(0,T),\quad u(0)= 0,\quad u_t(0)= 0. \] The families of operators \(\{A(t)\}\) and \(\{B(t)\}\) have a time-dependent domain \(D(A(t))\) and \(D(B(t))\) in a Hilbert space \(H\) for \(t\in(0, T)\). Both families satisfy standard assumptions (e.g., \(A(t)\) is self-adjoint and positive, \(B(t)\) is subordinate to \(\sqrt{A(t)}\) and so on). The authors are interested in well-posedness results, in particular in the determination of suitable function spaces for the right-hand side \(f= f(t)\) and for the solutions \(u= u(t)\). The solutions are generalized solutions (strong solutions) having energy generated by \(u_{tt}+ A(t)u\). Fixing the function space of the right-hand sides, the authors derive at first an energy estimate and show then that this energy inequality holds for all elements of this function space. This gives the desired well-posedness. Applications to mixed problems in 1D for hyperbolic equations with a singular coefficient are given.
