Lp estimates for the wave equation

Let u(x, t) be the solution of u_tt ? Δ_xu = 0 with initial conditions $\text{u(x, 0) = g(x)}\text{and}\text{u}{}_{\mathrm{t}}\text{(x, 0) = ?;(x)}$. Consider the linear operator $\text{T: ?; → u(x, t)}$. (Here g = 0.) We prove for t fixed the following result. Theorem 1: T is bounded in L^p if and only if . Theorem 2: If the coefficients are variables in C and constant outside of some compact set we get: (a) If n = 2k the result holds for $\text{¦ p}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}\text{? 2}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}\text{¦ < (n ? 1)}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}$. (b) If n = 2k ? 1, the result is valid for $\text{¦ p}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}\text{? 2}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}\text{¦ ? (n ? 1)}$. This result are sharp in the sense that for p such that $\text{¦ p}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}\text{? 2}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}\text{¦ > (n ? 1)}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}$ we prove the existence of $\text{?; ? L}{}^{\mathrm{P}}$ in such a way that $\text{T?; ? L}{}^{\mathrm{P}}$. Several applications are given, one of them is to the study of the Klein-Gordon equation, the other to the completion of the study of the family of multipliers $\text{m(ξ) = ψ(ξ) e}{}^{\mathrm{i¦\xi ¦}}\text{¦ ξ ¦}{}^{\mathrm{?b}}$ and finally we get that the convolution against the kernel $\text{K(x) = ?(x)(1 ? ¦ x ¦)}{}^{\mathrm{?1}}$ is bounded in H¹.
