We build spherically symmetric wormholes within the DGP theory. We calculate the energy localized on the shell, and we find that for certain values of the parameters wormholes could be supported by matter not violating the energy…

We investigate traversable wormhole solutions within a four-dimensional effective theory derived from a five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons action with a non-minimally coupled scalar field. A warped Kaluza-Klein compactification…

When dealing with a spacetime, one usually searches for singularities, black holes, white holes and wormholes due to their importance to the motion of particles. There is a family of solution of the Brans-Dicke vacuum equations that has not…
