Review text

The paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem for semilinear wave equations of the form \[ u_{tt}-\Delta u=g(u);\quad u(x,0)=\phi (x),\quad u_ t(x,0)=\psi (x) \] where \((x,t)\in {\mathbb{R}}^ 3\times {\mathbb{R}}\) and g,\(\phi\),\(\psi\) are assumed to be smooth. No smallness assumptions are made with respect to \(\phi\),\(\psi\). If g is bounded from above everywhere and from below for negative arguments the existence of a global classical solution is shown. If moreover g is nonpositive and vanishes at least of order \(2+\epsilon\) at the origin and if the data decay sufficiently rapidly at infinity, the scattering operator is shown to exist. The method of proof is based on apriori estimates and fixed points arguments.
