This current analysis offers novel wormhole solutions in the background of newly developed extended $f(\mathcal{R},\mathcal{L}_m)$ gravity. We use an anisotropic matter source and a particular type of energy density demonstrating cold dark…

Here we shall show how to reconstruct the shape function of a spherically symmetric traversable Lorenzian wormhole near its throat if one knows high frequency quasinormal modes of the wormhole. The wormhole spacetime is given by the…

We present an exactly soluble charged wormhole model in two dimensions by adding infalling chiral fermions on the static wormhole. The infalling energy due to the infalling charged matter requires the classical back reaction of the…

A two-way traversable wormhole solution in Brans-Dicke theory with torsion is obtained using the method of massive thin shells. The solution goes over general relativity for an infinite large value of the coupling parameter, however, the…

We study the existence of light rings (LR's) and timelike circular orbits (TCO's) in spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat wormhole geometries. We use a purely geometric approach based in the intrinsic curvatures of a $2$-dimensional…

Wormhole geometries in curvature-matter coupled modified gravity are explored, by considering an explicit nonminimal coupling between an arbitrary function of the scalar curvature, R, and the Lagrangian density of matter. It is the…

We study strong gravitational lensing by a specific one-parameter extension of Kerr spacetime, a Kerr-like wormhole, characterized by a single parameter specifying the throat's location. We classify the roots of the radial potential derived…

In this paper I present a new class of traversable wormholes. This is done by surgically grafting two Schwarzschild spacetimes together in such a way that no event horizon is permitted to form. This surgery concentrates a non--zero…

The field equations of static, spherically symmetric geometries generated by anisotropic fluids is investigated with the aim of better understanding the relation between the matter and the emergence of minimal area throats, like in wormhole…

Spacetime wormholes are evidently an essential component of the construction of a time machine. Within the context of general relativity, such objects require, for their formation, exotic matter -- matter that violates at least one of the…

The existing solutions to the Einstein equations describing rotating cylindrical wormholes are not asymptotically flat and therefore cannot describe wormhole entrances as local objects in our Universe. To overcome this difficulty, flat…

We study static traversable wormholes obtained by Morris and Thorne in general relativity (GR) in the framework of a modified theory of gravity. The modified gravitational action $f(R,T)$ is a function of the Ricci scalar ($R$) and of the…

The ring wormhole is the zero-mass limit of the Kerr metric. Its geometry is locally flat, but the topology is nontrivial, with a throat connecting two asymptotic regions and a distributional curvature singularity on the ring encircling the…
