where Hand¢ are C 00 -functions. By the method of characteristics, the solution of this problem is explicitly constructed. It is well-known that, even for smooth initial data, the solution becomes multi-valued in finite time. That is, singularities appear. Recently Tsuji ([6] [7]) and Nakane [5] studied the behavior of solutions near the singular point. They assumed that singularities of the projection to the base space from the multi-valued solution are fold or cusp type singularities. But, other type of singularities may be appeared in generic. Our purpose is to describe bifurcations of singularities of solutions along the time parameters geometrically. We will study this problem in the framework of the theory of Legendrian unfoldings. In §2 we will introduce the theory of one-parameter Legendrian unfoldings for preparations. In §3 the geometric treatment of Hamilton-Jacobi equation will be given and we will formulate a generalized Cauchy problem associated with the time parameter. Theorem 3.2 is the base of our theory. By this theorem we can apply Arnol'd-Zakalyukin's classifications of oneparameter perestroika of wave front sets and caustics to our situations ( [l], [2], [8]).
