Globally maximal timelike geodesics in static spherically symmetric spacetimes: radial geodesics in static spacetimes and arbitrary geodesic curves in ultrastatic spacetimes

Leszek M. Sokolowski, Zdzislaw A. Golda

This work deals with intersection points: conjugate points and cut points, of timelike geodesics emanating from a common initial point in special spacetimes. The paper contains thr…
