Chaos in pp-wave spacetimes
arXiv:gr-qc/9805078 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.58.081501
Abstract
We demonstrate chaotic behavior of timelike, null and spacelike geodesics in non-homogeneous vacuum pp-wave solutions. This seems to be the first known example of a chaotic motion in exact radiative spacetime.
