The authors study long-time asymptotic behaviour for all finite energy solutions to Cauchy problem for the model of the one-dimensional \(U(1)\)-invariant \((F(e^{ - i\theta }\psi ) = e^{ - i\theta }F(\psi)\), \(\psi \in \mathbb{C}\), \(\theta \in \mathbb{R})\) nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with nonlinearity concentrated at a single point
\[ \ddot {\psi }(x,t) = {\psi }''(x,t) - m^2\psi (x,t) + \delta (x)F(\psi (0,t)),\quad \psi (x,0) = \psi _0 (x),\quad \dot {\psi }(x,0) = \pi _0 (x): \]
each finite energy solution converges for \(t \to \pm \infty \) to the set of all nonlinear eigenfunctions of the form \(\psi(x)\exp (-i\omega t)\). The global attractor for all finite energy solutions is considered. In particular it is proved that for a U(1)-invariant dispersive Hamiltonian system the global attractor is finite-dimensional and is formed by solitary waves which are finite energy solutions of the type \(\psi_\omega(x,t)=\psi_\omega(x)e^{i\omega t}\), \(\omega\in\mathbb{C}\). It is shown that the global attraction is caused by the nonlinear energy transfer from lower harmonics to the continuous spectrum and subsequent dispersive radiation.
