## Abstract Regularity of the solution for the wave equation with constant propagation speed is conserved with respect to time, but such a property is not true in general if the propagation speed is variable with respect to time. The main purpose of this paper is to describe the order of regularity

Abstract
We consider the Cauchy problem for second‐order strictly hyperbolic equations with time‐depending non‐regular coefficients. There is a possibility that singular coefficients make a regularity loss for the solution. The main purpose of this paper is to derive an optimal singularity for the coefficient that the Cauchy problem is C^∞^ well‐posed. Moreover, we will apply such a result to the estimate of the existence time of the solution for Kirchhoff equation. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract In this paper we consider a generalization of the classical time‐harmonic Maxwell equations, which as an additional feature includes a radial symmetric perturbation in the form of the Euler operator $E:={\textstyle\sum\nolimits\_{i}}\,x\_i {\partial }/{\partial x\_i}$. We show how one
