contents This paper is concerned with a cubic nonlinear Schrödinger system modeling the interaction between an optical beam and its third harmonic in a material with Kerr-type nonlinear response. We are mainly interested in the so-called energy-critical case, that is, in dimension four. Our main result states that radially symmetric solutions with initial energy below that of the ground states but with kinetic energy above that of the ground states must blow-up in finite time. The proof of this result is based on the convexity method. As an independent interest we also establish the existence of ground state solutions, that is, solutions that minimize some action functional. In order to obtain our existence results we use the concentration-compactness method combined with variational arguments. As a byproduct, we also obtain the best constant in a vector critical Sobolev-type inequality.
