Abstract

We investigate an initial boundary value problem for a second-order hyperbolic equation with only integral conditions. We show the existence, uniqueness, and continuous dependence of a strongly generalized solution. The proof is based on an energy inequality established in a nonclassical function space, and on the density of the range of the operator associated to the abstract formulation of the studied problem by introducing special smoothing operators.
