Abstract

We illustrate the composition properties for an extended family of \({\text {SG}}\) Fourier integral operators. We prove continuity results on modulation spaces, and study mapping properties of global wave-front sets for such operators. These extend classical results to more general situations. For example, there are no requirements on homogeneity for the phase functions. Finally, we apply our results to the study of the propagation of singularities, in the context of modulation spaces, for the solutions to the Cauchy problems for the corresponding linear hyperbolic operators.
