This work is devoted to the study of the decay of multiscale deterministic solutions of the unforced Burgers equation in the limit of vanishing viscosity. A deterministic model of turbulence-like evolution is considered. We con- struct the initial perturbation as a piecewise linear analog of the Weierstrass function. The wavenumbers of this function form a Weierstrass spectrum, which accumulates at the origin in geometric progression.Reverse sawtooth functions with negative initial slope are used in this series as basic functions, while their amplitudes are chosen by the condition that the distribution of energy over exponential intervals of wavenumbers is the same as for the continuous spectrum in Burgers turbulence. Combining these two ideas allows us to obtain an exact analytical solution for the velocity field. We also notice that such multiscale waves may be constructed for multidimensional Burgers equation. This solution has scaling exponent h=-(1+n)/2 and its evolution in time is self-similar with logarithmic periodicity and with the same average law L(t) as for Burgers turbulence. Shocklines form self-similar regular tree-like struc- tures. This model also describes important properties of the Burgers turbulence such as the self-preservation of the evolution of large scale structures in the presence of small scales perturbations.
