contents We consider the space $\mathscr{H}_L ^{s,r} (O)$ consisting of all local Sobolev distributions of order $s$ on an open set $O$ whose Sobolev wave front set of order $r$ is contained in the closed conic set $L\subseteq O\times(\mathbb{R}^m\backslash\{0\})$. We introduce a locally convex topology on $\mathscr{H}_L ^{s,r} (O)$ and show that the ordinary product of smooth functions uniquely extends to a continuous bilinear mapping $\mathscr{H}_{L_1} ^{r_1,r'} (O) \times \mathscr{H}_{L_2} ^{r_2,r''} (O) \to \mathscr{H}_{L} ^{s,r} (O)$, for appropriate $s$ and $r$ when $L_1$ and $L_2$ are in a favorable position. The key ingredient in our proof is to employ Hörmander's idea of considering the pullback by the diagonal map $x\mapsto (x,x)$ of the tensor product of two distributions.

We consider the space $\mathscr{H}_L ^{s,r} (O)$ consisting of all local Sobolev distributions of order $s$ on an open set $O$ whose Sobolev wave front set of order $r$ is contained in the closed conic set $L\subseteq O\times(\mathbb{R}^m\backslash\{0\})$. We introduce a locally convex topology on $\mathscr{H}_L ^{s,r} (O)$ and show that the ordinary product of smooth functions uniquely extends to a continuous bilinear mapping $\mathscr{H}_{L_1} ^{r_1,r'} (O) \times \mathscr{H}_{L_2} ^{r_2,r''} (O) \to \mathscr{H}_{L} ^{s,r} (O)$, for appropriate $s$ and $r$ when $L_1$ and $L_2$ are in a favorable position.
