The paper deals with the well-posedness of the problem [Formula: see text] where u = u(t, x), t ∈ ℝ, x ∈ Ω, Δ = Δx denotes the Laplacian operator with respect to the space variable, Ω is a bounded regular (C∞) open domain of ℝN (N ≥ 1), Γ = ∂Ω, ν is the outward normal to Ω, k is a constant. We prove that it is ill-posed if N ≥ 2, while it is well-posed when N = 1. In the one-dimensional case, we give a complete existence, uniqueness and regularity theory. We also give some existence result for regular initial data when N ≥ 2 and Ω is a ball.
