The Cauchy problem for the equation \(u_{tt}-\Delta u+V(x)u+u_t |u_t ^{m-1}=u |u |^{p-1}\) on \(\mathbb R^{+}\times\mathbb R^N,\) where \(V(x)\) is a positive potential and \(1\leq m<p\leq N/(N-2),\) is treated. The authors prove, that if the initial data are in a neighborhood of the standing wave of the equation with minimal action, then the solution of the problem corresponding to these data blows up in a finite time. Further, they derive the inequality between the norms of the initial data and the ground state solution, which guarantees global existence of solutions to the Cauchy problem.
