Abstract
H\"ormander proved global existence of solutions for sufficiently small initial data for scalar wave equations in dimensions of the form where vanishes to second order and . Without the latter condition, only almost global existence may be guaranteed. The first author and Sogge considered the analog exterior to a star-shaped obstacle. Both results relied on writing the lowest order terms and as such do not immediately generalize to systems. The current study remedies such and extends both results to the case of multiple speed systems.
