In this work, we derive an exact vacuum solution to the Einstein field equations that depends on three constant parameters: the throat radius $r_0$, a parameter $q$, which is closely associated with the Komar mass, and a parameter $s$,…

The geometry of a spacetime containing a wormhole generated by a spherically symmetric electric field is investigated in detail. These solutions arise in high-energy extensions of General Relativity formulated within the Palatini approach…

All known solutions to the Einstein equations describing rotating cylindrical wormholes lack asymptotic flatness and therefore cannot describe wormhole entrances as local objects in our Universe. To overcome this difficulty, wormhole…

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…

Anisotropic spherically symmetric systems are studied in the connection and densitized triad variables used in loop quantum gravity. The material source is an anisotropic fluid, which is arguably the most commonly used source term in…

We describe two interesting effects in wormhole physics. First, we find that a genuinely charged matter source may appear neutral to an external observer - a phenomenon opposite to the famous Misner-Wheeler "charge without charge" effect.…

In this paper we construct a precise mathematical model of the Multiverse, consisted of the universes, that are connected with each other by dynamical wormholes. We consider spherically symmetric free of matter wormholes. At the same time…

We study a static, spherically symmetric wormhole model whose metric coincides with that of the so-called Ellis wormhole but the material source of gravity consists of a perfect fluid with negative density and a source-free radial electric…

Three static models with two interacting phantom and ghost scalar fields were considered: a model of a traversable wormhole, a brane-like model and a spherically symmetric problem. It was shown numerically that regular solutions exist for…

Macroscopic traversable wormhole solutions to Einstein's field equations in $(2+1)$ and $(3+1)$ dimensions with a cosmological constant are investigated. Ensuring traversability severely constrains the material used to generate the…

We study solutions obtained via applying dualities and complexifications to the vacuum Weyl metrics generated by massive rods and by point masses. Rescaling them and extending to complex parameter values yields axially symmetric vacuum…

The general form of a stationary, axially symmetric traversable wormhole is discussed. This provides an explicit class of rotating wormholes that generalize the static, spherically symmetric ones first considered by Morris and Thorne. In…

Wormholes (WHs) are considered as hypothetical shortcuts or tunnels in spacetime. In general relativity (GR), the fundamental ingredient of WH geometry is the presence of exotic matter at the throat, which is responsible for the violation…
