Abstract: For a one-dimensional mildly quasilinear wave equation given in the upper half-plane, we consider the Cauchy problem. The initial conditions have discontinuity of the first kind at one point. We construct the solution using the method of characteristics in an implicit analytical form as a solution of some integro-differential equations. The solvability of these equations, as well the smoothness of their solutions, is studied. For the problem in question, we prove the uniqueness of the solution, and establish the conditions under which its classical solution exists.
