We investigate the global structure of the space time with a spherically symmetric inhomogeneity using a metric junction, and classify all possible types. We found that a motion with a negative gravitational mass is possible although the…

We have constructed a spherically symmetric structure model in a cosmological background filled with perfect fluid with non-vanishing pressure as an exact solution of Einstein equations using the Lema\^{i}tre solution. To study its local…

In this paper, we study exact wormhole solutions in the framework of general relativity with a general equation of state that reduced to a linear equation of state asymptotically. By considering a special shape function, we find classes of…

A two-parameter family of spherically symmetric, static Lorentzian wormholes is obtained as the general solution of the equation $\rho=\rho_t=0$, where $\rho = T_{ij} u^iu^j$, $\rho_t = (T_{ij} - {1\over2} T g_{ij}) u^iu^j$, and $u^i u_i =-…

The renormalised vacuum expectation values of massless fermion (conventionally call it neutrino) stress-energy tensor are calculated in the static spherically-symmetrical wormhole topology. Consider the case when the derivatives of metric…

We investigate here the gravitational collapse end states for a spherically symmetric perfect fluid with an equation of state $p=k\rho$. It is shown that given a regular initial data in terms of the density and pressure profiles at the…

For static, spherically symmetric space-times in general relativity (GR), a no-go theorem is proved: it excludes the existence of wormholes with flat and/or AdS asymptotic regions on both sides of the throat if the source matter is…

A study is undertaken of the gravitational collapse of spherically symmetric thick shells admitting a homothetic Killing vector field under the assumption that the energy momentum tensor corresponds to the absence of a pure outgoing…

We present a systematic study of exact solutions for traversable wormhole geometries in a static and hyperbolic symmetric spacetime. In the conventional form of studying wormhole geometry, traversability requires the presence of exotic…

We construct a 2+1 dimensional spacetime of constant curvature whose spatial topology is that of a torus with one asymptotic region attached. It is also a black hole whose event horizon spins with respect to infinity. An observer entering…

We explore a static and stationary black bounce geometry inspired by Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG), focusing on how LQG corrections and regularization parameters affect its properties. Building on the spherically symmetric and static black…

We investigate a new type of Schwarzschild wormhole, which relies on a 3-dimensional spacetime defect with degenerate metrics. This particular wormhole is a solution of the vacuum Einstein equations. We also study the generalized…

In quadratic gravity, the junction conditions are six and permit the appearance of double layer thin shells. Double layers arise typically in theories with dipoles, i.e., two opposite charges, such as electromagnetic theories, and appear…
