The subject began with Huygens’s theory of wave fronts as envelopes of smoother waves, and subsequent work by Euler, d’Alembert and Riemann.Singularities at the wave fronts were not understood before Hadamard’s theory of “partie finie” at the beginning of this century.Contributions by Herglotz and Petrovsky and the theory of distributions created in the forties by Laurent Schwartz greatly illuminated the study of singularities of solutions of hyperbolic PDE’s.Solutions of Cauchy’s problem given by Hadamard, Schauder, Petrovsky, and the author are discussed.More recently, microlocal analysis, initiated by M.Sato
