Antipodal Identification in the Schwarzschild Spacetime
Keyword(s):
"Through a Möbius transformation, we study aspects like topology, ligth cones, horizons, curvature singularity, lines of constant Schwarzschild coordinates r and t, null geodesics, and transformed metric, of the spacetime (SKS/2)^' that results from: i) the antipode identification in the Schwarzschild-Kruskal-Szekeres (SKS) spacetime, and ii) the suppression of the consequent conical singularity. In particular, one obtains a non simply-connected topology: (SKS/2)^' = R^2* ×S^2 and, as expected, bending light cones."
