We consider a class of weakly hyperbolic systems of first-order, nonlinear PDEs. Weak hyperbolicity means here that the principal symbol of the system has a crossing of eigenvalues, and is not uniformly diagonalizable. We prove the…
This paper studies the Cauchy problem for variable coefficient weakly hyperbolic first order systems of partial differential operators. The hyperbolicity assumption is that for each $t, x$ the principal symbol is hyperbolic. No hypothesis…
In this paper we study the well-posedness of weakly hyperbolic systems with time dependent coefficients. We assume that the eigenvalues are low regular, in the sense that they are H\"older with respect to $t$. In the past these kind of…
In this paper we study the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for first order hyperbolic systems with constant multiplicities and with low regularity coefficients depending just on the time variable. We consider Zygmund and log-Zygmund…
In this paper we study first order hyperbolic systems with multiple characteristics (weakly hyperbolic) and time-dependent analytic coefficients. The main question is when the Cauchy problem for such systems is well-posed in $C^{\infty}$…
There is a tendency to write the equations of general relativity as a first order symmetric system of time dependent partial differential equations. However, for numerical reasons, it might be advantageous to use a second order formulation…

In this paper we consider weakly hyperbolic equations of higher orders in arbitrary dimensions with time-dependent coefficients and lower order terms. We prove the Gevrey well-posedness of the Cauchy problem under $C^k$-regularity of…
We study hyperbolic systems with multiplicities and smo\-oth coefficients. In the case of non-analytic, smooth coefficients, we prove well-posedness in any Gevrey class and when the coefficients are analytic, we prove $C^\infty$…
We establish a consistency result by comparing two independent notions of generalised solutions to a large class of linear hyperbolic first order PDE systems with constant coefficients, showing that they eventually coincide. The first is…
We prove some $C^\infty$ and Gevrey well-posedness results for hyperbolic equations whose coefficients lose regularity at one point.
For first-order quasi-linear systems of partial differential equations, we formulate an assumption of a transition from initial hyperbolicity to ellipticity. This assumption bears on the principal symbol of the first-order operator. Under…
In this paper we prove that the Cauchy problem for first-order quasi-linear systems of partial differential equations is ill-posed in Gevrey spaces, under the assumption of an initial ellipticity. The assumption bears on the principal…
Symmetric hyperbolic systems of equations are explicitly constructed for a general class of tensor fields by considering their structure as r-fold forms. The hyperbolizations depend on 2r-1 arbitrary timelike vectors. The importance of the…
We revisit the theory of first-order quasilinear systems with diagonalizable principal part and only real eigenvalues, what is commonly referred to as strongly hyperbolic systems. We provide a self-contained and simple proof of local…
In this paper we analyse the Gevrey well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for weakly hyperbolic equations of general form with time-dependent coefficients. The results involve the order of lower order terms and the number of multiple roots.…
We are interested in the feedback stabilization of general linear multi-dimensional first order hyperbolic systems in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Using a Lyapunov function with a suited weight function depending on the system under consideration we…
Hyperbolic-parabolic systems have spatially homogenous stationary states. When the dissipation is weak, one can derive weakly nonlinear-dissipative approximations that govern perturbations of these constant states. These approximations are…
We present a framework for constructing a first-order hyperbolic system whose solution approximates that of a desired higher-order evolution equation. Constructions of this kind have received increasing interest in recent years, and are…
For a symmetric hyperbolic system of the first order, we prove a Carleman estimate under some positivity condition concerning the coefficient matrices. Next, applying the Carleman estimate, we prove an observability $L^2$-estimate for…
