In this brief report I introduce a yet another class of geometries for which semi-classical chronology protection theorems are of dubious physical reliability. I consider a ``Roman ring'' of traversable wormholes, wherein a number of…

We study the tideless traversable wormholes in the $f(R)$ gravity metric formalism. First we consider three shape functions of wormholes and study their viabilities and structures. The connection between the $f(R)$ gravity model and…

We investigate traversable wormhole solutions within the framework of $f(\mathscr{Q},\mathscr{L}_m)$ gravity, a symmetric teleparallel theory featuring non-minimal coupling between geometry and matter. Adopting a linear functional form…

A possible candidate for the late time accelerated expanding Universe is phantom energy, which possesses rather bizarre properties, such as the prediction of a Big Rip singularity and the violation of the null energy condition. The latter…

This study aims to investigate the physical properties of wormhole geometry within the context of $f(T,\mathcal{T})$ gravity, which serves as a teleparallel formulation of general relativity. We study a linear model,…

A traversable wormhole generally violates the averaged null energy condition, usually requiring exotic matter. Recently, it has been found that the traversable wormhole can be realized by non-exotic matter in Einstein-Dirac-Maxwell theories…

In this work we demonstrate that wormholes can in principle be naturally created during the cosmological bounce without the need for the exotic matter or any kind of additional modifications of the gravitational sector, apart from the one…

In this work, we study the rotating wormhole geometries supported by a three-form field. We demonstrate for particular choices of parameters that it is possible for the matter fields threading the wormhole to satisfy the null and weak…

Black hole complementarity is incompatible with the existence of traversable wormholes. In fact, traversable wormholes cause problems for any theory where information comes out in the Hawking radiation.

Asymptotically flat wormhole solutions are found in the deformed Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity. It turns out that higher curvature terms can not play the role of exotic matters which are crucial to form a traversable wormhole, and external…

In this work we propose the modelling of static wormholes within the $f(R,T)$ extended theory of gravity perspective. We present some models of wormholes, which are constructed from different hypothesis for their matter content, i.e.,…

The paper entitled Unimodular Gravity Traversable Wormholes by Agrawal et al. examined the properties of barotropic wormholes without tidal forces within the framework of Unimodular Gravity. Our analysis demonstrates that their conclusion…

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…

This article is based on the study of wormhole geometries in the context of symmetric teleparallel gravity or $f(Q)$ gravity, where $Q$ is the non-metricity scalar, and it is responsible for the gravitational interaction. To discuss the…

This paper reexamines a special class of thin-shell wormholes that are unstable in general relativity in the framework of noncommutative geometry. It is shown that as a consequence of the intrinsic uncertainty these wormholes are stable to…

Motivated by recent proposals of possible wormhole existence in galactic halos, we analyse the cosmological evolution of wormhole solutions in modified $f(R)$ gravity. We construct a dynamical wormhole that asymptotically approaches FLRW…
