A five-dimensional solution to Einstein's equations coupled to a scalar field has been proposed as a partial solution to the cosmological constant problem: the effect of arbitrary vacuum energy (tension) of a 3-brane is cancelled; however,…
We present new solutions of higher dimensional Einstein's equations with a cosmological constant that localize gravity on branes which are transverse to Ricci-flat manifolds or to homogeneous spaces with topologically non-trivial solutions…
Based on the recently introduced black-bounce spacetimes, we shall consider the construction of the related spherically symmetric thin-shell traversable wormholes within the context of standard general relativity. All of the really unusual…
The objective of this manuscript is to investigate the traversable wormhole solutions in the background of the $f(R, \phi)$ theory of gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $\phi$ is the scalar potential respectively. For this reason,…
In this paper, we use the embedding class-I technique to examine the effect of charge on traversable wormhole geometry in the context of $f(\mathcal{G})$ theory, where $\mathcal{G}$ is the Gauss-Bonnet term. For this purpose, we consider…
In this paper, we analyse the global structure of the Bronnikov wormhole, which is the most general spherically-symmetric and static solution in Einstein gravity coupled to a free massless phantom scalar. We then introduce a scalar…
This study explores the potential existence of traversable wormholes influenced by a global monopole charge within the $f(Q)$ gravity framework. To elucidate the characteristics of these wormholes, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of…
The massless conformally coupled scalar field is characterized by the so-called "new improved stress-energy tensor", which is capable of classically violating the null energy condition. When coupled to Einstein gravity we find a…
In a brane-world context in which our universe would be a four-dimensional brane embedded into a five-dimensional spacetime or bulk, wormhole geometries are induced on branes. In this article, the Morris-Thorne wormhole and the Molina-Neves…
It is shown that among the different classes of claimed static wormhole solutions of the vacuum Brans-Dicke theory only Brans Class I solution with coupling constant $\omega$ less than -1.5 (excluding the point $\omega =2$) gives rise to…
We describe a concise general scheme for constructing solutions of Einstein-Maxwell-Kalb-Ramond gravity-matter system in bulk space-time interacting self-consistently with one or more (widely separated) codimension-one electrically charged…
In this work, we find novel static and spherically symmetric wormhole geometries using a three-form field. By solving the gravitational field equations, we find a variety of analytical and numerical solutions and show that it is possible…
Recent studies relating the approximations for the equations of state for thin shells and their consequent perturbative evolution are extended to thin-shell wormholes in theories beyond general relativity and more than four spacetime…
Wormhole configurations in Einstein's general theory of relativity (GR) require exotic matter sources violating the weak energy condition (WEC). Rastall's theory is a generalization of GR in its matter source considering a nonconserved…
We present and investigate charged wormhole solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations supported by anisotropic matter fields, with the purpose of establishing their physical plausibility as traversable wormholes. To this end, we examine…
We consider a scalar field with a negative kinetic term minimally coupled to gravity. We obtain an exact non-static spherically symmetric solution which describes a wormhole in cosmological setting. The wormhole is shown to connect two…
We extend previous proofs that violations of the null energy condition (NEC) are a generic and universal feature of traversable wormholes to completely non-symmetric time-dependent wormholes. We show that the analysis can be phrased purely…
In this work we present a class of geometries which describes wormholes in a Randall-Sundrum brane model, focusing on de Sitter backgrounds. Maximal extensions of the solutions are constructed and their causal structures are discussed. A…
While wormholes may be just as good a prediction of Einstein's theory as black holes, they are subject to severe restrictions from quantum field theory. In particular, a wormhole can only be held open by violating the null energy condition,…
We have examined the possible construction of a stationary, spherically symmetric and spatially inhomogeneous wormhole spacetime supported by the phantom energy. The later is supposed to be represented by the modified Chaplygin gas equation…
