Abstract

In this paper, the Gödel-type solutions within the k-essence theory are investigated. The consistency of field equations, causality violation and existence of closed timelike curves are studied. The conditions for existence of Gödel and Gödel-type solutions are determined for any function that defines the k-essence. By taking different sources of matter, it is shown that this theory of gravity allows causal and non-causal Gödel-type solutions.
