Time Machines with Non-compactly Generated Cauchy Horizons and ``Handy Singularities"

Abstract

The use of "handy singularities" (i.e. singularities similar to those arising in the Deutch-Politzer space) enables one to avoid (almost) all known difficulties inherent usually to creation of time machines. A simple method is discussed for constructing a variety of such singularities. A few 3-dimensional examples are cited.
