We study the process of quantum tunnelling in self-interacting scalar field theories with non-minimal coupling to gravity. In these theories gravitational instantons can develop a neck -- a feature prohibited in theories with minimal…
One way to explain the present acceleration of the Universe is Einstein's cosmological constant. It is quite likely, in view of some recent studies, that a time-dependent equation of state had caused the Universe to evolve from an earlier…
We investigate a nucleation of a Euclidean wormhole and its analytic continuation to Lorentzian signatures in Gauss-Bonnet-dilaton gravity, where this model can be embedded by the type-II superstring theory. We show that there exists a…
We study the classical and quantum Euclidean wormholes for an empty (4+1) dimensional Kaluza-Klein universe with a positive cosmological constant and a spatially flat Robertson-Walker type metric. It is shown that classical wormholes do not…
Gravitational lensing by traversable Lorentzian wormholes is a ew possibility which is analyzed here in the strong field limit. Wormhole solutions are considered in the Einstein minimally coupled theory and in the brane world model. The…
The aims of this work are 1) to sketch a proof that there are such parameterizations of the local frame and canonical connection structures when the gravitational field equations in f(R,T)-modified gravity, MG, can be integrated in generic…
We investigate whether self-maintained vacuum traversible wormhole can exist described by stationary but nonstatic metric. We consider metric being the sum of static spherically symmetric one and a small nondiagonal component which…
The point of this paper is see what light new results in hyperbolic geometry may throw on gravitational entropy and whether gravitational entropy is relevant for the quantum origin of the univeres. We introduce some new gravitational…
In this work, we explore the possibility of evolving (2+1) and (3+1)-dimensional wormhole spacetimes, conformally related to the respective static geometries, within the context of nonlinear electrodynamics. For the (3+1)-dimensional…
The wormhole contribution to the gravitational path integral may be interpreted as smooth remnant of correlations among the erratic large-$N$ behaviors of dual CFTs. In this work, we investigate this idea in (2+1)-dimensional gravity. We…
We constructed a model where the central core of the universe is a modified Gidding-Strominger wormhole and surrounding the core is a Robertson-Walker Universe with k=0. They are separated by a thin wall which does not allow the content of…
Static, spherically symmetric, traversable wormhole solutions with electric or magnetic charges are shown to exist in general relativity in the presence of scalar fields nonminimally coupled to gravity. These wormholes, however, turn out to…
We develop a symmetric traversable wormhole model, integrating Einstein's gravitational coupling phantom field and a nonlinear electromagnetic field. This work indicates the emergence of negative ADM mass within a specific parameter range,…
In this paper, we wish to investigate certain observable effects in the recently obtained wormhole solution of the EiBI theory, which generalizes the zero mass Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole of general relativity. The solutions of EiBI theory…
It is shown that in the presence of virtual wormholes, the vacuum is unstable, which leads to a series of phase transitions in the early Universe. Then the standard Kibble scenario predicts the formation of defects such as domain walls. An…
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…
It is known that the appearance of microscopic objects with distinct topologies and different Euler characteristics, such as instatons and wormholes, at the spacetime-foam level in Euclidean quantum gravity approaches, leads to spacetime…
The first junction conditions of spherically symmetric bubbles are solved for some cases, and whereby analytic models to the Einstein field equations are constructed. The effects of bubbles on the spacetime structure are studied and it is…
We provide a prescription of real feasible sources that supply fuel to construct a traversable wormhole. A class of exact solutions for Einstein-Maxwell field equations describing wormhole with an anisotropic matter distribution has been…
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.…
