Anti--de Sitter spacetime is important in general relativity and modern field theory. We review its geometrical features and properties of light signals and free particles moving in it. Applying only elementary tools of tensor calculus we…
We present a maximally symmetric vacuum spacetime, which is locally isometric anti- de Sitter, admitting closed timelike curves appear after a definite instant of time i.e., a time-machine spacetime. The spacetime is regular, free-from…
A class of exact solutions of the geodesic equations in (anti-)de Sitter AdS$_4$ and dS$_4$ spacetimes is presented. The geodesics for test particles in AdS$_4$ and dS$_4$ spacetimes are respectively sinusoidal and hyperbolic sine world…
Timelike geodesics on a hyperplane orthogonal to the symmetry axis of the G\"odel spacetime appear to be elliptic-like if standard coordinates naturally adapted to the cylindrical symmetry are used. The orbit can then be suitably described…
De Sitter space is a non-flat Lorentzian space form with positive constant curvature which plays an important role in the theory of relativity. In this paper, we define the notions of timelike rectifying curve and timelike conical surface…
This work is intended to investigate the geometry of anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS), from the point of view of the Laplacian Comparison Theorem (LCT), and to give another description of the hyperbolical embedding standard formalism of the…
If the Hamiltonian of a quantum field theory is taken to be a timelike isometry, the vacuum state remains empty for all time. We search for such stationary vacua in anti-de Sitter space. By considering conjugacy classes of the Lorentz…
For a general spherically four--dimensional metric the notion of "circularity" of a family of equatorial geodesic trajectories is defined in geometrical terms. The main object turns out to be the angular--momentum function $J$ obeying a…
We present a detailed analysis for the classical stability of a four dimensional Anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS$_4$) by decomposing the first-order perturbations of a spherical symmetric gravitational field into the so called tensor…
We present a complete study of the geodesics around naked singularities in AdS$_3$, the three-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime. These stationary spacetimes, characterized by two conserved charges --mass and angular momentum--, are…
We establish a one-to-one correspondence between static spacetimes and Riemannian manifolds that maps causal geodesics to geodesics, as suggested by L. C. Epstein. We then explore constant curvature spacetimes - such as the de Sitter and…
It is shown that timelike surfaces of constant mean curvature 1 in anti-de Sitter 3-space can be constructed from a pair of Lorentz holomorphic and Lorentz antiholomorphic null curves in PSL(2,R) via Bryant type representation formulae.…
We state several sufficient conditions for compact spacelike surface in the3-dimensional de Sitter space to be totally geodesic or spherical.
We investigate local and global properties of timelike geodesics in three static spherically symmetric spacetimes. These properties are of its own mathematical relevance and provide a solution of the physical `twin paradox' problem. The…
This relativistic, time-travel spacetime is everywhere metrically flat, excepting a conical singularity. Observers following timelike geodesics can eventually encounter their past selves, aging in the opposite time sense. The spacetime is…
We study spacelike hypersurfaces in anti-De Sitter spacetime that evolve by the Lagrangian angle of their Gau\ss\ maps.
The complete analytical solutions of the geodesic equations in Kerr-de Sitter and Kerr-anti-de Sitter space-times are presented. They are expressed in terms of Weierstrass elliptic p, zeta, and sigma functions as well as hyperelliptic…
We consider new cosmological solutions which generalize the cosmological patch of the Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space-time, allowing for fluids with equations of state such that $w\neq -1$. We use them to derive the associated full manifolds. We…
In this article we study the geodesic motion of test particles and light in the five-dimensional Myers-Perry-anti de Sitter spacetime. We derive the equations of motion and present their solutions in terms of the Weierstra{\ss} $\wp$-,…
A survey on the recent work of Danciger, Gu\'eritaud and Kassel on Margulis space-times and complete anti-de Sitter space-times. Margulis space-times are quotients of the 3-dimensional Minkowski space by (non-abelian) free groups acting…
