Abstract

Exact global propagators are constructed for the singular hyperbolic operators in two variables x2 k - 2t2 + λ (k - 1) xk - 2t - ∂x2, λ a real parameter, and for the degenerate hyperbolic operators ∂t2 - t2 k - 2x2 - λ (k - 1) tk - 2x. Qualitative phenomena such as uniqueness in the Cauchy problem and branching of singularities vary with λ, as shown earlier by Treves and by Taniguchi and Tozaki.
