A spacetime with closed timelike geodesics everywhere

arXiv:1004.3235

Abstract

In the present article we find a new class of solutions of Einstein's field equations. It describes stationary, cylindrically symmetric spacetimes with closed timelike geodesics everywhere outside the symmetry axis. These spacetimes contain a magnetic field parallel to the axis, a perfect fluid with constant density and pressure, and Lorentz invariant vacuum with energy density represented by a negative cosmological constant.
