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…

Traversability in relation with tides in thin-shell wormholes is revisited to investigate the possibility of improving recently noted restrictive conditions for a safe travel across a wormhole throat. We consider wormholes mathematically…

We introduce two classes of spherically symmetric spacetimes having a thin shell of matter, in non-quadratic F(R) theories of gravity with non-constant scalar curvature R. In the first, the thin shell joins an inner region with an outer…

We consider wormhole geometries subject to a gravitational action consisting of non-linear powers of the Ricci scalar. Specifically, wormhole throats are studied in the case where Einstein gravity is supplemented with a Ricci-squared and…

It is well known that static wormhole configurations in general relativity (GR) are possible only if matter threading the wormhole throat is "exotic"---i.e., violates a number of energy conditions. For this reason, it is impossible to…
