For a generic $f(R)$ which admits a polynomial expansion of at least third order (i.e. $\frac{d^{3}f}{dR^{3}}\neq 0$) we find the near-throat wormhole solution. Necessary conditions for the existence of wormholes in such $f(R)$ theories are…

There are a number of reasons to study wormholes with generic cosmological constant $\Lambda$. Recent observations indicate that present accelerating expansion of the universe demands $\Lambda>0$. On the other hand, some extended theories…
