Singular Cauchy Problem for the Euler-Poisson-Darboux EquationConsider the partial differential equation Cauchy problem for (1) consists in the determination of a solution of (l), for t > 0, meeting the following initial conditions on the "singular" plane t = 0:where g is a given function. For k any real number, this singular Cauchy problem was first solved by A. Weinstein [7], who employed what he termed the "method of recurrence" and a generalized method of descent. Let, for the time being, the solution of the Cauchy problem (l), (2) be denoted by Z J~. Weinstein shows that for k = -1, -3, * * -the Cauchy problem for uk can be reduced to a Cauchy problem for u k + 2 by means of the following recurrence formulas:
