Hyperbolic differential operators with constant coefficients introduced and studied systematically by Gårding (4), were characterized by the existence of the fundamental solution with some cone condition, according to Hörmander (6). Recently Ehrenpreis, extending the notion of hyperbolicity due to Gårding, has defined hyperbolic operators for distributions with compact support in the convolution sense. Under the hypothesis that the operator is invertible as a distribution, he has established a theorem analogous to the theorem of Hörmander mentioned above (3).
