We consider solutions, u ∈ Hlocs (Ω̄), s > (dim Ω + 1)/2, satisfying (1.1)$$ Pu = f(t,z,u) $$ on Ω = R t × ω, where ω ⊂ R z n is an open set with smooth boundary; P is a second-order differential operator with C∞ coefficients on R(t, z)n+1, noncharacteristic with respect to bΩ and strictly hyperbolic with respect to the planes t = c; and f ∈ C∞.Interactions between singularity-bearing bicharacteristics taking place in the interior of Ω in t >t̄ can produce anomalous singularities in u, that is, singularities not present in the function u satisfying Pu = 0, u│ b Ω= u│ b Ω in t <t̄ These singularities can have strength at most ~ 3s - n (Beals [1]) and are generated by processes, crossing and self-spreading, that have been well-understood for some time (Beals [2], [3]). In this paper we shall describe propagation and interaction at the boundary, where generalized bicharacteristics [6], which typically contain segments of reflecting, grazing, or gliding rays, carry singularities.
