We study the stability of thin-shell wormholes in Einstein-Maxwell-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. The equation of state of the thin shell wormhole is considered first to obey a generalized Chaplygin gas and then we generalize it to an arbitrary…

This paper discusses the stability to linearized radial perturbations of spherically symmetric thin-shell wormholes with a "phantom-like" equation of state for the exotic matter at the throat: $P=\omega\sigma$, $\omega<0$, where $\sigma$ is…
We construct boson star solutions in the presence of a phantom field, allowing for a nontrivial topology of the solutions. The wormholes residing at the core of the configurations lead to a number of qualitative changes of the boson star…
