Abstract

Several classes of self-similar, spherically symmetric solutions of relativistic wave equation with nonlinear term of the form sign(\phi) are presented. They are constructed from cubic polynomials in the scale invariant variable t/r. One class of solutions describes a process of wiping out the initial field, another an accumulation of field energy in a finite and growing region of space.
