Abstract: The pull-back, push-forward and multiplication of smooth functions can be extended to distributions if their wave front set satisfies some conditions. Thus, it is natural to investigate the topological properties of these operations between spaces D_Gamma of distributions having a wave front set included in a given closed cone Gamma of the cotangent space. As discovered by S. Alesker, the pull-back is not continuous for the usual topology on D_Gamma , and the tensor product is not separately continuous. In this paper, a new topology is defined for which the pull-back and push-forward are continuous, the tensor and convolution products and the multiplication of distributions are hypocontinuous.
