We note that the non-orthogonality of states and their coincidence at the degeneracy point are both admitted by nonlinear Hermitian systems and linear non-Hermitian systems. These striking characteristics motivate us to re-investigate the…

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…
