Abstract
After a short introduction to the characteristic geometry underlying weakly hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations we review the notion of symmetric hyperbolicity of first-order systems and that of regular hyperbolicity of second-order systems. Numerous examples are provided, mainly taken from nonrelativistic and relativistic continuum mechanics.
