Abstract: Let $(M,mathsfd,mathfrakm,ll,leq,au)$ be a causally closed, $mathscrK$-globally hyperbolic, regular measured Lorentzian geodesic space satisfying the weak timelike curvature-dimension condition $smashmathrm{wTCD}_p^e(K,N)$ in the sense of Cavalletti and Mondino. We prove the existence of geodesics of probability measures on $M$ which satisfy the entropic semiconvexity inequality defining $smashmathrm{wTCD}_p^e(K,N)$ and whose densities with respect to $mathfrakm$ are additionally uniformly $L^{i}nfty$ in time. This holds apart from any nonbranching assumption. We also discuss similar results under the timelike measure-contraction property.
