We prove that the sequence of averaged quantities R R m un(x, p) ρ(p)dp, is strongly precompact in L 2 loc (R d ), where ρ ∈ L 2 c (R m ), and un ∈ L 2 (R m ; L s (R d )), s ≥ 2, are weak solutions to differential operator equations with variable coefficients. In particular, this includes differential operators of hyperbolic, parabolic or ultraparabolic type, but also fractional differential operators. If s > 2 then the coefficients can be discontinuous with respect to the space variable x ∈ R
