Classical Solutions of the Perturbed Wave Equation with Singular Potential
A. Vaidya and G. A. Sparling


Abstract.  This paper discusses the solutions to the perturbed wave equation containing a singular potential term in the Lorentzian metric. We present the classical solution to the problem using the separation of variables method for any dimension, $n$. Special solutions are obtained for even $n$'s and properties of these solutions are discussed. Finally, we also consider the solution to the Cauchy problem for the case $n=2$.
