We demonstrate chaotic behavior of timelike, null and spacelike geodesics in non-homogeneous vacuum pp-wave solutions. This seems to be the first known example of a chaotic motion in exact radiative spacetime.

  1. Chaotic behaviors of particles around the black hole with an anisotropic matter immersed in a magnetic field

    gr-qc 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Exact black hole solution with anisotropic matter and magnetic field shows the matter parameter reduces local chaos (Lyapunov exponent) while the magnetic field drives qualitative shifts in global chaos (Poincaré sections).
