So recently I saw a video with Richard Gott explaining a self-creating universe. There's three quick questions I'm confused about that I did not understand very well from the video:
1. How does a closed time-like curve allow the universe to self-create? Wouldn't the universe just go around the time-loop? How did it get past the time-loop to create a universe?
2. What is a Godel metric universe?
3. I know this question sounds really silly, but is the closed time-like curve an existing property of the universe that was 'just there' so it was infinitely forming different branches of universes?
Thanks! I would really appreciate any answers!
