Such a universe behaves like a time-machine and has geodesics which coincide with closed time-like curves (CTCs). A system evolving along a CTC experiences the Loschmidt velocity reversion and undergoes a recurrence commensurate with the universal period. We indicate why this universe is free of the causality paradoxes, usually associated with CTCs.General Relativity and Quantum CosmologyRecurrence metrics and the physics of closed time-like curvestext
