Abstract

In this paper, we study Gödel universe in the framework of f(R, T) modified theories of gravity, where R is the curvature scalar and T the trace of the energy–momentum tensor. We demonstrate that Gödel solution occurs in this modified theory and still we suggest a path to understanding the smallness of the cosmological constant.
