We present a global metric describing closed timelike curves embedded in Minkowski spacetime. Physically, the metric represents an Alcubierre warp drive on a rotating platform. The physical realizability of such a metric is uncertain due to…
We classify simply-connected homogeneous ($D+1$)-dimensional spacetimes for kinematical and aristotelian Lie groups with $D$-dimensional space isotropy for all $D\geq 0$. Besides well-known spacetimes like Minkowski and (anti) de Sitter we…

A useful concept in the development of physical models on the $\kappa$-Minkowski noncommutative spacetime is that of a curved momentum space. This structure is not unique: several inequivalent momentum space geometries have been identified.…

Bielavsky introduced and investigated the class of symmetric symplectic spaces, that is, symmetric spaces endowed with a symplectic form invariant with respect to symmetries. Since the theory of symmetric spaces has generalizations, we ask…
Isophote curve consists of a locus of surface points whose normal vectors make a constant angle with a fixed vector (the axis). In this paper, we define an isophote curve on a spacelike surface in Lorentz-Minkowski space and then find its…
A new general procedure to construct realistic spacetimes is introduced. It is based on the null congruence on a time-oriented Lorentzian manifold associated to a certain timelike vector field. As an application, new examples of stably…
