In the present communication, we have studied the existence of wormholes described by a logarithmic shape function, in the exponential f(R, T) gravity given by f(R, T) = R + 2ξe^{ςt} where ξ and ς are arbitrary constants, under three different set of physical constraints. The logarithmic shape function is found to be well behaved satisfying all the necessary constraints for traversable and asymptotically flat wormholes. The obtained wormhole solutions are analyzed from the energy conditions for different values of involved physical constants. It has been observed that our proposed shape function for the exponential form of f(R, T) gravity, represents the existence of exotic matter with a standard violation of the NEC. Moreover, for the trace T=0 i.e. for the general relativity case with R being replaced by R+2, the wormhole geometry has been analyzed to prove the existence of exotic matter. Further, the behaviour of physical parameters such as the energy density ρ, the trace T, anisotropy parameter △ describing the geometry of the universe has been presented with the help of graphs.

We have proposed a novel shape function on which the metric that models traversable wormholes is dependent. Using this shape function, the energy conditions, equation-of-state and anisotropy parameter are analyzed in [Formula: see text] gravity, [Formula: see text] gravity and general relativity. Furthermore, the consequences obtained with respect to these theories are compared. In addition, the existence of wormhole geometries is investigated.

Morris and Thorne1 proposed traversable wormholes, hypothetical connecting tools, using the concept of Einstein’s general theory of relativity. In this paper, the modification of general relativity (in particular [Formula: see text] theory of gravity defined by Harko et al.2) is considered, to study the traversable wormhole solutions. The function [Formula: see text] is considered as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are controlling parameters. The shape and redshift functions appearing in the metric of wormhole structure have significant contribution in the development of wormhole solutions. We have considered both variable and constant redshift functions with a logarithmic shape function. The energy conditions are examined, geometric configuration is analyzed and the radius of the throat is determined in order to have wormhole solutions in absence of exotic matter.

In this work, the solutions of traversable wormholes are investigated inside modified [Formula: see text] gravity under non-commutative geometry since matter possesses Lorentzian density distribution of a particle-like gravitation source. To find the exact wormhole solutions, two different shape functions [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], are considered. The first shape function was proposed by Mishra and Sharma [A new shape function for wormholes in [Formula: see text] gravity and General Relativity, preprint (2020), arXiv:2003.00298v1 [physics.gen-ph]], however the second is newly defined in this paper. The behaviors of both shape functions are analyzed with the throat radius [Formula: see text]. The equation-of-state (EoS) parameter energy conditions, and anisotropy parameter are discussed with graphical point of view.

The present work is focused on the study of traversable wormholes, proposed by Morris and Thorne [Wormholes in spacetime and their use for interstellar travel: A tool for teaching general relativity, Am. J. Phys. 56 (1988) 395], using the background of modified gravity. It is performed by using the models: I. [Formula: see text], II. [Formula: see text] and III. [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are constants. The Model I belongs to the theory of [Formula: see text] gravity, Model II belongs to the theory of [Formula: see text] gravity and Model III is a combination of Models I and II. These functions have been taken into account for the exploration of wormhole solutions. The shape function, a wormhole metric function, is newly defined which satisfies the flare out condition. Further, the stability condition and energy conditions, namely null, weak and dominant energy conditions, have been examined with respect to each model.

In this work, we investigate wormhole configurations described by a constant redshift function in Einstein-Cubic gravity ( ECG ). We derive analytical wormhole geometries by assuming a particular equation of state ( EoS ) and investigate the possibility that these solutions satisfy the standard energy conditions. We introduce exact asymptotically flat and anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes that admit traversable wormholes. These solutions are obtained by imposing suitable values for the parameters of the theory so that the resulted geometries satisfy the weak energy condition ( WEC ) in the vicinity of the throat, due to the presence of higher-order curvature terms. Moreover, we find that AdS solutions satisfy the WEC throughout the spacetime. A description of the geodesic motion of time-like and null particles is presented for the obtained wormhole solutions. Also, using gravitational lensing effects, observational features of the wormhole structure are discussed.

In this paper, traversable wormholes have been studied in [Formula: see text] gravity, where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are constant. A simplest form of shape function and a logarithmic form of redshift function is considered to construct wormhole solutions. The range of parameters providing the wormhole solutions free from the matter violating the energy conditions is explored. Further, the effect of charge is analyzed on wormhole solutions.

AbstractThe present work looks for the existence of completely new wormhole geometries in the bulge of the Milky Way galaxy (MWG) situated on the dark matter (DM) density profile followed from MacMillan (MNRAS 76:465, 2017) and Boshkayev and Malafarina (MNRAS 484:3325, 2019) concerned with Global Monopole Charge. The obtained shape function is positively increasing against the radial coordinate and it increases faster with the increasing values of Global Monopole Charge. Moreover, the reported shape function satisfies all the essential criterions and hence it constructs wormhole geometry in the bulge of the MWG. Further, the DM candidate around bulge is suitable to harbor wormhole by violating the null energy condition(NEC) corresponding to three different redshift functions. The striking point of our solution is that for zero Global Monopole Charge the wormholes are asymptotically flat corresponding to the first two choices of redshift functions while for positive values of Global Monopole Charge wormhole becomes non asymptotically flat and Global Monopole Charge also has the crucial effect on the violation of NEC. In our solutions, one can note that the total amount of averaged NEC violating matter in the wormhole spacetime depends on the Global Monopole Charge $$\eta $$ η . Furthermore, the respective wormhole solutions are in equilibrium positions.

Abstract In this paper, we investigate the effect of the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) in the Casimir wormhole spacetime recently proposed by Garattini (Eur Phys J C 79: 951, 2019). In particular, we consider three types of GUP relations, firstly the Kempf, Mangano and Mann (KMM) model, secondly the Detournay, Gabriel and Spindel (DGS) model, and finally the so-called type II model for the GUP principle. To this end, we consider three specific models of the redshift function along with two different equations of state (EoS), given by $${\mathcal {P}}_r(r)=\omega _r(r) \rho (r)$$Pr(r)=ωr(r)ρ(r) and $${\mathcal {P}}_t(r)=\omega _t (r){\mathcal {P}}_r(r)$$Pt(r)=ωt(r)Pr(r) and obtain a class of asymptotically flat wormhole solutions supported by Casimir energy under the effect of GUP. Furthermore we check the null, weak, and strong condition at the wormhole throat with a radius $$r_0$$r0, and we show that in general the classical energy conditions are violated by some arbitrary quantity at the wormhole throat. Importantly, we examine the wormhole geometry with semiclassical corrections via embedding diagrams. We also consider the ADM mass of the wormhole, the volume-integral quantifier to calculate the amount of the exotic matter near the wormhole throat, and the deflection angle of light.

Traversable wormholes, tunnel-like structures introduced by Morris and Thorne [Am. J. Phys. 56 (1988) 395], have a significant role in connection of two different spacetimes or two different parts of the same spacetime. The characteristics of these wormholes depend upon the redshift and shape functions which are defined in terms of radial coordinate. In literature, several shape functions are defined and wormholes are studied in [Formula: see text] gravity with respect to these shape functions [F. S. N. Lobo and M. A. Oliveira, Phys. Rev. D 80 (2009) 104012; H. Saiedi and B. N. Esfahani, Mod. Phys. Lett. A 26 (2011) 1211; S. Bahamonde, M. Jamil, P. Pavlovic and M. Sossich, Phys. Rev. D 94 (2016) 044041]. In this paper, two shape functions (i) [Formula: see text] and (ii) [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], are considered. The first shape function is newly defined, however, the second one is collected from the literature [M. Cataldo, L. Liempi and P. Rodríguez, Eur. Phys. J. C 77 (2017) 748]. The wormholes are investigated for each type of shape function in [Formula: see text] gravity with [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are real constants. Varying the parameter [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] model is studied in five subcases for each type of shape function. In each case, the energy density, radial and tangential pressures, energy conditions that include null energy condition, weak energy condition, strong energy condition and dominated energy condition and anisotropic parameter are computed. The energy density is found to be positive and all energy conditions are obtained to be violated which support the existence of wormholes. Also, the equation-of-state parameter is obtained to possess values less than [Formula: see text], that shows the presence of the phantom fluid and leads toward the expansion of the universe.
