We construct a two-parameter family of explicit solutions to the cubic wave equation on $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$. Depending on the value of the parameters, these solutions either scatter to linear, blow-up in finite time, or exhibit a new type of…

We consider the defocusing nonlinear wave equation $u_{tt}-\Delta u + |u|^p u=0$ in the energy-supercritical regime p>4. For even values of the power p, we show that blowup (or failure to scatter) must be accompanied by blowup of the…
