The present study analyses the wormhole solution both in the dRGT-$ f(R,T) $ massive gravity and Einstein massive gravity. In both the models, the anisotropic pressure solution in ultrastatic wormhole geometry gives rise to the shape…

For static, spherically symmetric space-times in general relativity (GR), a no-go theorem is proved: it excludes the existence of wormholes with flat and/or AdS asymptotic regions on both sides of the throat if the source matter is…

We review a new traversable-wormhole solution of the gravitational field equation of general relativity without exotic matter. Instead of having exotic matter to keep the wormhole throat open, the solution relies on a 3-dimensional…

Models of static wormholes within the $f(\textit{R}, \textit{T})$ extended theory of gravity are investigated and, in particular, the family $f(\textit{R}, \textit{T}) = R + \lambda T$, with $T = \rho + P_{r} + 2P_{l}$ being the trace of…

It has been argued that wormholes are as good a prediction of Einstein's theory as black holes but the theoretical construction requires a reverse strategy, specifying the desired geometric properties of the wormhole and leaving open the…

We study the problem of existence of static spherically symmetric wormholes supported by the kink-like configuration of a scalar field. With this aim we consider a self-consistent, real, nonlinear, nonminimally coupled scalar field $\phi$…

In this work, we analyze the wormhole solutions in $f(R)$ gravity. Specifically we sought for wormhole geometry solutions for the following three shape functions: (i) $b(r)=r_{0}+\rho_{0}r_{0}^{3}\ln\left(\frac{r_{0}}{r}\right)$, (ii)…

We aim at finding static, spherically symmetric, vacuum solutions of a gauge invariant theory of gravity over Weyl integrable geometry spaces. It arises that vacuum wormholes of pure geometric nature are solutions of this theory. This means…
