Symmetries of geodesic motion in Gödel-type spacetimes

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we study Noether gauge symmetries of geodesic motion for geodesic Lagrangian of four classes of metrics of Gödel-type spacetimes for which we calculated the Noether gauge symmetries for all classes I-IV, and find the first integrals of corresponding classes to derive a complete characterization of the geodesic motion. Using the obtained expressions for t˙,r˙,ϕ˙\dot{t}, \dot{r}, \dotϕ and z˙\dot{z} of each classes I-IV which depends essentially on two independent parameters mm and ww, we explicitly integrated the geodesic equations of motion for the corresponding Gödel-type spacetimes.
