A model of traversable wormhole in an extended gravity theory has been proposed. The Casimir effect and Generalised Uncertainty Principle (GUP) arising out of the concept of minimal length have been considered to obtain the shape function,…

In the present article, models of traversable wormholes within the $f(R, T)$ modified gravity theory are investigated. We have presented some wormhole models, developed from various hypothesis for the substance of their matter, i.e. various…

Building on the work of Morris, Thorne, and Yurtsever, some particularly simple examples of traversable wormholes are exhibited. These examples are notable both because the analysis is not limited to spherically symmetric cases, and because…

We present a wormhole solution in four dimensions. It is a solution of an Einstein Maxwell theory plus charged massless fermions. The fermions give rise to a negative Casimir-like energy, which makes the wormhole possible. It is a long…

This paper discusses the possibility of traversable wormholes in the galactic region supported by dark matter (DM) models and global monopole charge in the context of $f(Q)$ gravity. To understand the features of the wormholes, we…

It is well known that a Morris-Thorne wormhole can only be held open by violating the null energy condition, physically realizable by the use of "exotic matter." Unfortunately, even a small or moderately-sized wormhole would have a radial…

A crucial aspect of wormhole (WH) physics is the inclusion of exotic matter, which requires violating the null energy condition. Here, we explore the potential for WHs to be sustained by quark matter under conditions of extreme density…

Recent papers by Fewster and Roman have emphasized that wormholes supported by arbitrarily small amounts of exotic matter will have to be incredibly fine-tuned if they are to be traversable. This paper discusses a wormhole model that…

We show that non-minimal coupling between matter and geometry can indeed help in constructing stable, traversable, wormholes (WHs) without requiring exotic matter under certain conditions. In models like $f({\cal Q},{\cal T})={\cal Q}+\beta…

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…

A general class of solutions is obtained which describe a spherically symmetric wormhole system. The presence of arbitrary functions allows one to describe infinitely many wormhole systems of this type. The source of the stress-energy…

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 this work, we undertake an analysis of new wormhole solutions within an action-dependent Lagrangian framework. These geometries can be traversable and supported by a positive energy density. The modification of the gravitational field…

Wormholes that meet the flare-out condition violate the weak energy condition in classical general relativity. The purpose of this note is to show that even a slight modification of the gravitational theory could, under certain conditions,…

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…
