Since we have no examples of time travel to examine, we have no basis 
for theorising about how the universe works in the presence of time 
travel. All the known laws of physics (including thermodynamics) might 
have to be modified to encompass it

All we can do is speculate as to how the Universe might behave, bearing 
in mind that the Universe is never constrained to behave in the way we 
think it should. It will do what it does.
