The full causal ladder of spacetimes is constructed, and their updated main properties are developed. Old concepts and alternative definitions of each level of the ladder are revisited, with emphasis in minimum hypotheses. The implications of the recently solved ``folk questions on smoothability'', and alternative proposals (as recent isocausality), are also summarized.

  1. Metric affine gravity with dynamical chronology protection

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A new metric-affine gravity toy model dynamically generates a global time function via projective invariance breaking to enforce stable causality, recovering mimetic gravity and yielding a broader dark sector.
