We show that some novel physics of supertubes removes closed time-like curves from many supersymmetric spaces which naively suffer from this problem. The main claim is that supertubes naturally form domain-walls, so while analytical…
We present a class of supersymmetric Godel solutions in string theory from the non-standard intersection of branes in supergravities. Such solutions are obtained by applying a T-duality on the known solutions in PP-wave spacetime. We…
We construct boundary states for supertubes in the flat spacetime. The T-dual objects of supertubes are moving spiral D1-branes (D-helices). Since we can obtain these D-helices from the usual D1-branes via null deformation, we can construct…
We consider a string-inspired, gravitational theory of scalar and electromagnetic fields and we investigate the existence of axially-symmetric, G\"{o}del-type cosmological solutions. The neutral case is studied first and an "extreme"…
We show that the Goedel solution of five-dimensional gauged supergravity contains either closed time-like curves through every space-time point or none at all, dependent on the rotational parameter. In addition, we present a deformation of…
We analyze the structure of supersymmetric Godel-like cosmological solutions of string theory. Just as the original four-dimensional Godel universe, these solutions represent rotating, topologically trivial cosmologies with a homogeneous…
We generalize the classification of all supersymmetric solutions of pure N=2, D=4 gauged supergravity to the case when external sources are included. It is shown that the source must be an electrically charged dust. We give a particular…
Supersymmetric backgrounds in string and M-theory of the Godel Universe type are studied. We find several new Godel Universes that preserve up to 20 supersymmetries. In particular, we obtain an interesting Godel Universe in M-theory with 18…
It is pointed out that various types of cosmic string solutions that exist in nonsupersymmetric and globally supersymmetric theories, such as D-type gauge strings, F-type global and gauge strings, and superconducting Witten strings, also…
We discuss supersymmetric black holes embedded in a Goedel-type universe with cosmological constant in five dimensions. The spacetime is a fibration over a four-dimensional Kaehler base manifold, and generically has closed timelike curves.…
We show that homogeneous G\"odel spacetimes need not contain closed timelike curves in low-energy-effective string theories. We find exact solutions for the G\"odel metric in string theory for the full $O(\alpha ^{\prime})$ action including…
We demonstrate how a five dimensional Godel universe appears as the core of resolved two-charge and three-charge over-rotating BMPV black holes. A smeared generalized supertube acts as a domain wall and removes regions of closed timelike…
G\"odel universe is a direct product of a line and a three-dimensional spacetime we call G$_\alpha$. In this paper, we show that the G\"odel metrics can arise as exact solutions in Einstein-Maxwell-Axion, Einstein-Proca-Axion, or…
We study curved domain wall solutions for gauged supergravity theories obtained by gauging some of the isometries of the manifold spanned by the scalars of vector and hypermultiplets. We first consider the case obtained by compactifying…
We discuss plane wave backgrounds of string theory and their relation to Goedel-like universes. This involves a twisted compactification along the direction of propagation of the wave, which induces closed timelike curves. We show, however,…
BPS domain wall solutions of gauged supergravities are found, including those theories which have non-compact gauge groups. These include models that have both an unstable de Sitter solution and stable domain wall solutions.
We find exact rotating and non-rotating neutral black hole solutions in the Godel universe of the five dimensional minimal supergravity theory. We also describe the embedding of this solution in M-theory. After dimensional reduction and…
Time-dependent solutions of supergravity and string theory are studied. The examples are obtained from de Sitter deformation of gauge/gravity dualities, analytical continuation of static solutions, and ``exactly solvable'' worldsheet…
We construct a class of superstring solutions in non trivial space-time. The existence of an $N=4$ world-sheet superconformal symmetry stabilizes our solutions under perturbative string loop corrections and implies in target space some…
We determine, in the context of five-dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ gauged supergravity with vector and hypermultiplets, the conditions under which curved (non Ricci flat) supersymmetric domain wall solutions may exist. These curved BPS domain…
