Abstract: The global attraction is established for all finite energy solutions to a model mathbfU(1)-invariant nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation in one dimension coupled to a finite number of nonlinear oscillators: We prove that {it each finite energy solution} converges as topminfty to the set of all ``nonlinear eigenfunctions of the form phi(x)esp−iomegat if all oscillators are strictly nonlinear, and the distances between all neighboring oscillators are sufficiently small. The {it global attraction} is caused by the nonlinear energy transfer from lower harmonics to the continuous spectrum and subsequent dispersive radiation. This result for one oscillator was obtained in [KK07]. We construct counterexamples showing that the convergence to the solitary waves may break down if the distance between some of the neighboring oscillators is sufficiently large or if some of the oscillators are harmonic. In these cases, the global attractor can contain ``multifrequency solitary waves or linear combinations of distinct solitary waves.
