Abstract
A method by which a geometry with causality violation can be taken as a part of a globally causal space-time model is presented. This procedure is applied to a pair of extensions to Gödel’s space-time: a ‘‘Gödel-generalized’’ and a stringlike solution. The latter is shown to be an intermediate region between Gödel and deformed Minkowski geometries. Some conclusions and general ideas concerning structures with closed timelike curves are also presented.
