In this work we have formulated a new class of traversable exponential wormhole metrics. Here initially we have considered a exponential wormhole metric in which the temporal component is an exponential function of $r$ but the spatial…
We study Lorentzian wormholes in the ghost-free bigravity theory described by two metrics, g and f. Wormholes can exist if only the null energy condition is violated, which happens naturally in the bigravity theory since the graviton…
In this paper, we study the energy conditions of charged traversable wormholes in the framework of $f(R, \mathscr{L}_m)$ modified gravity. In the first case, we derive the shape functions (SFs) for two different choices of the charge…
We study the existence and properties of wormhole throats in modified $f(R)$ gravity theory. Specifically, we concentrate on the cases where the lapse is not necessarily constant, and hence are not limited to the zero tidal force scenarios.…
The aim of this paper is to report on the existence of a wide variety of exact solutions, ranging from black holes to wormholes, when a conformally coupled scalar field with a self interacting potential containing a linear, a cubic and a…
Analytical wormhole solutions in Brans-Dicke theory in the presence of matter are presented. It is shown that the wormhole throat must not be necessarily threaded with exotic matter.
We argue that a spherically symmetric traversable wormhole solution of the Einstein field equations can be supported by minimally coupled self-interacting scalar field which allows a spontaneous symmetry breaking of the field around the…
We study the existence of light rings (LR's) and timelike circular orbits (TCO's) in spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat wormhole geometries. We use a purely geometric approach based in the intrinsic curvatures of a $2$-dimensional…
In 6D general relativity with a phantom scalar field as a source of gravity, we present solutions that implement a transition from an effective 4D geometry times small extra dimensions to an effectively 6D space-time where the physical laws…
We are exploring the possibility of traversable wormholes existing in a more realistic context. Specifically, we are looking at scenarios that don't rely on exotic factors, like having a mass shell at the throat or allowing particles and…
In this paper, we investigate how charge and modified terms affect the viability and stability of traversable wormhole geometry in the framework of $f(R,G)$ theory, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $G$ is the Gauss-Bonnet term. For this…
We present a dynamical analysis of the null and timelike geodesics around an asymptotically de Sitter wormhole in a Randall-Sundrum brane. In this framework, the wormhole throat is interpreted both as a photon sphere and as a fixed point of…
We show that the RST model describing the exactly soluble black hole model can have a dynamical wormhole solution along with an appropriate boundary condition. The necessary exotic matter which is usually negative energy density is…
We study the structure of a family of static, spherically symmetric space-times generated by an anisotropic fluid and governed by a particular type of $f(R)$ theory. We find that for a range of parameters with physical interest, such…
We consider wormhole geometries subject to a gravitational action consisting of non-linear powers of the Ricci scalar. Specifically, wormhole throats are studied in the case where Einstein gravity is supplemented with a Ricci-squared and…
In this paper, we present the spherically symmetric Proca star in the presence of a phantom field and obtain a traversable wormhole solution for non-trivial topological spacetime. Using numerical methods, symmetric solutions and asymmetric…
In the standard approach to studying wormhole geometry, the presence of dark energy is unavoidable to ensure traversability. The dark energy provides the negative gravity effect to keep the throat open. The question we analyse is whether…
In this article we study spherical thin-shell wormholes in five-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We show that configurations supported by non-exotic matter, that is matter satisfying the weak energy condition, are possible at the…
In the present study we search for a new class of wormhole solutions in the framework of Brans-Dicke (BD) theory in the presence of anisotropic matter distribution. Considering a linear equation of state (EoS) between radial pressure and…
