Abstract

In this work we study the structure of the future causal completion M^\hat{M} of a globally hyperbolic GRW spacetime R×αM\mathbb{R}\times_\alpha M using the novel notion of Lorentzian pre-length spaces. As our main result, we prove that the causal completion of a GRW spacetime is a globally hyperbolic pre-length space provided the chronological topology is Hausdorff.
