Goursat and Darboux Type Problems for Linear Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations and Systems

abstract:
In the present paper, for hyperbolic equations and systems in angular domains, we consider the formulations of problems representing natural continuation and further development of the well-known classical formulations of Goursat and Darboux type problems. For a wide class of linear normally hyperbolic equations and systems of second order, the dependence of unique solvability of the problems under consideration on the structure of an angular domain as well as on the weighted space in which the solution is sought, is established. Some correct multidimensional analogues of Goursat and Darboux type problems for hyperbolic equations are also considered.
