Criteria for finite time blow up for a system of Klein-Gordon equations

Abstract: We give three conditions on initial data for the blowing up of the corresponding solutions to some system of Klein-Gordon equations on the three dimensional Euclidean space. We first use Levine's concavity argument to show that the negativeness of energy leads to the blowing up of local solutions in finite time. For the data of positive energy, we give a sufficient condition so that the corresponding solution blows up in finite time. This condition embodies datum with arbitrarily large energy. At last we use Payne-Sattinger's potential well argument to classify the datum with energy not so large (to be exact, below the ground states) into two parts: one part consists of datum leading to blowing-up solutions in finite time, while the other part consists of datum that leads to the global solutions.
