The well-known problem of wormholes in general relativity (GR) is the necessity of exotic matter, violating the Weak Energy Condition (WEC), for their support. This problem looks easier if, instead of island-like configurations, one…

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…
