Abstract
In this note we reduce the problem of geodesic connectedness in a wide class of Gödel type spacetimes to the search of critical points of a functional naturally involved in the study of geodesics in standard static spacetimes. Then, by using some known accurate results on the latter, we improve previous results on the former. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.File in questo prodotto:
