Abstract

We study the solvability of a system of ordinary differential equations derived from null geodesics of the LTB metric with data given in terms of a so-called redshift parameter. Data is introduced along these geodesics by the luminosity distance function. We check our results with luminosity distance depending on the cosmological constant and with the well-known FRW model.
