Nariai--Bertotti--Robinson spacetimes as a building material for one-way wormholes with horizons, but without singularity

We discuss the problem of wormholes from the viewpoint of gluing together two Reissner--Nordström-type universes while putting between them a segment of the Nariai-type world (in both cases there are also present electromagnetic fields as well as the cosmological constant). Such a toy wormhole represents an example of one-way topological communication free from causal paradoxes, though involving a travel to next spacetime sheet since one has to cross at least a pair of horizons through which the spacetimes' junction occurs. We also consider the use of thin shells in these constructions. Such a ``material'' for wormholes we choose taking into account specific properties of the Nariai--Bertotti--Robinson spacetimes.

Cylindrically symmetric non-aligned Einstein-Maxwell solutions with rotation and pseudorotation of the types O and N

A new solution to the Einstein-Maxwell field equations is presented describing a cylindrically symmetric homogeneous cosmology. The solution is conformally flat, it possesses seven Killing vectors of which the timelike one is rotating and one of the spacelike, pseudorotating. Our solution also admits a Kerr-Schild form. It is alternatively produced by different electromagnetic sources some of which represent constant null electromagnetic fields, while the others, a circularly polarized plane electromagnetic wave (seemingly, a unique situation in general relativity). The concrete electromagnetic four-potentials are found from the assumption that they are proportional to the Killing covectors. The general solution is obtained for timelike and null geodesics. Finally, we find that this space-time admits closed timelike non-geodesic lines.
