Abstract
We consider the analog of a multipoint problem on the time variable for a hyperbolic equation with constant coefficients and an arbitrary number of spatial variables. The solution of the problem is sought in the class of functions that are almost-periodic on the spatial variables, whose spectrum has a point of accumulation at infinity. The existence of a solution of the problem is connected with the problem of small denominators. The central point of the article is occupied by a theorem on a lower estimate of the small denominators that arise in constructing a solution of the problem.
