{wiki=Globally_hyperbolic_manifold}
A globally hyperbolic manifold is a concept from the field of differential geometry and general relativity, particularly concerning the study of spacetime manifolds. A manifold \\((M, g)\\) equipped with a Lorentzian metric \\(g\\) (which allows for the definition of time-like, space-like, and null intervals) is said to be globally hyperbolic if it satisfies certain causality conditions.
