For a class of weakly hyperbolic systems of the form D_t - A(t,x,D_x), where A(t,x,D_x) is a first-order pseudodifferential operator whose principal symbol degenerates like t^{l_*} at time t=0, for some integer l_* \geq 1, well-posedness of…

Cauchy initial value problem on a hyperboloid is proved to define a Hamiltonian system, provided the radiation data at null infinity are also taken into account, as a part of Cauchy data. The "Trautman-Bondi mass", supplemented by the…

The Cauchy problem for the Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equations in Lorenz gauge in two and three space dimensions is locally well-posed for low regularity data without finite energy. The result relies on the null structure for the main bilinear…
