Traversable wormholes, tunnel like structures introduced by Morris \& Thorne \cite{morris1}, have a significant role in connection of two different space-times or two different parts of the same space-time. The characteristics of these…

The current study explores the generalized embedded wormhole solutions in the background of $f(\mathcal{R},\mathcal{G})$ gravity, where $\mathcal{R}$ represents the Ricci scalar and $\mathcal{G}$ denotes the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. To…

Models of static wormholes are investigated in the framework of $f(\textit{R}, \textit{T})$ gravity ($\textit{R}$ being the curvature scalar, and $\textit{T}$ the trace of the energy momentum tensor). An attempt to link the energy density…

We study a solution of Einstein's equations that describes a straight cosmic string with a variable angular deficit, starting with a $2 \pi$ deficit at the core. We show that the coordinate singularity associated to this defect can be…
