The study of radially symmetric motion is important for the theory of explosion waves. We construct rigorously self-similar entropy solutions to Riemann initial-boundary value problems for the radially symmetric relativistic Euler equations. We use the assumption of self-similarity to reduce the relativistic Euler equations to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, from which we obtain detailed structures of solutions besides their existence. For the ultra-relativistic Euler equations, we also obtain the uniqueness of the self-similar entropy solution to the Riemann initial-boundary value problems.

Boundary value problems are considered on a simplex <em>F</em> in the real Euclidean space R<sup>2</sup>. The recent discovery of new families of special functions, orthogonal on <em>F</em>, makes it possible to consider not only the Dirichlet or Neumann boundary value problems on <em>F</em>, but also the mixed boundary value problem which is a mixture of Dirichlet and Neumann type, ie. on some parts of the boundary of <em>F</em> a Dirichlet condition is fulfilled and on the other Neumann’s works.
