We show that introducing a periodic time coordinate in the models of Penner-Kontsevich type generalizes the corresponding constructions to the case of the moduli space ${\cal S}_{gn}^k$ of curves $C$ with homology chains $\gamma\in…
General relativity predicts the existence of closed timelike curves (CTCs), along which an object could travel to its own past. A consequence of CTCs is the failure of determinism, even for classical systems: one initial condition can…
We establish a general formula for the enclosed volume of constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in Euclidean three space with translational periods forming a lattice. The formula relates the volume to the surface area, a…
Defining Lorentzian Sabban frame of the unit speed time-like curves on de Sitter 2-space $\mathbb{S}^{2}_{1}$ and introducing space-like height function on the unit speed time-like curves on $\mathbb{S}^{2}_{1}$, the invariants of the unit…
Recently, an axially symmetric spacetime with causality violation is appeared in Ref. [1]. There, author presented a type III metric with vanishing expansion, shear and twist. The matter-energy represents a pure radial field with a negative…
A regular (i.e., singularity-free) cycling cosmological model is advanced. In the model, there are only two constants: the gravitational constant (or the Planck time) and the cosmic period. The radius of the universe is a simple periodic…
In this work we consider the evolution of a massive scalar field in cylindrically symmetric space-times. Quasinormal modes have been calculated for static and rotating cosmic cylinders. We found unstable modes in some cases. Rotating as…
In this paper we provide under certain geometric and physical assumptions new uniqueness and non-existence results for complete spacelike hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature in spatially open Generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes.…
Spacetime, understood as a globally hyperbolic manifold, may be characterized by spectral data using a 3+1 splitting into space and time, a description of space by spectral triples and by employing causal relationships, as proposed earlier.…
Time dependent orbifolds with spacelike or null singularities have recently been studied as simple models of cosmological singularities. We show that their apparent simplicity is an illusion: the introduction of a single particle causes the…
In this study, the geodesic motion of a test particle along with its confinement is investigated within Cylindrically Symmetric Wormhole spacetime admitting to Closed Timelike Curves. The confinement of particles with or without angular…
Our focus is on a specific type-N space-time that exhibits closed time-like curves in general relativity theory within the framework of Ricci-inverse gravity model. The matter-energy content is solely composed of a pure radiation field, and…
A link between the possibility of extending a geodessically incomplete kinked spacetime to a spacetime which is geodesically complete and the energy conditions is discussed for the case of a cylindrically-symmetric spacetime kink. It is…
In this study, some new types of timelike general helices associated to a non-lightlike curve are introduced in Minkowski 3-space. These new helices are called associated timelike helices. Some special types of associated timelike helices…
We consider spacetime to be a 4-dimensional differentiable manifold that can be split locally into time and space. No metric, no linear connection are assumed. Matter is described by classical fields/fluids. We distinguish electrically…
We study an exact model of string theory propagating in a space-time containing regions with closed time-like curves (CTCs) separated from a finite cosmological region bounded by a Big Bang and a Big Crunch. The model is an non-trivial…
We live in a 3+1 space-time that is intended as a description of the universe with three space dimensions and one time dimension. Space-time dimensionality seems so natural that it is rarely criticized. Experiments and the highly successful…
The problem of existence of spacelike hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in asymptotically flat spacetimes is considered for a class of asymptotically Schwarzschild spacetimes satisfying an interior condition. Using a barrier…
We will highlight that despite there being various approaches to quantum gravity, there are universal approach-independent features of quantum gravity. The geometry of spacetime becomes an emergent structure, which emerges from some purely…
We introduce a new class of out-of-equilibrium noninteracting topological phases, the topological space-time crystals. These are time-dependent quantum systems which do not have discrete spatial translation symmetries, but instead are…
