On the Classical Solutions of the Perturbed, Massless Wave Equation with Singular Potential

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.
