Here's the article that I assume this is referring to: http://arxiv.org/abs/1103.1373 I hate judging based on stupid journalist writeups of stuff like this, so I'll actually look through the article, for once. The first part of the abstract: "We construct a simple class of compactified five-dimensional metrics which admits closed timelike curves (CTCs), and derive the resulting CTCs as analytic solutions to the geodesic equations of motion. The associated Einstein tensor satisfies the null, weak, strong and dominant energy conditions; in particular, no negative-energy "tachyonic" matter is…
