AbstractWe study an interesting alternative of modified gravity theory, namely, the unimodular f(R, T) gravity in which R is the Ricci scalar and T is the trace of the stress–energy tensor. We study the viability of the model by using the energy conditions. We discuss the strong, weak, null and dominant energy conditions in terms of deceleration, jerk and snap parameters. We investigate energy conditions for reconstructed unimodular f(R, T) models and give some constraints on the parametric space of the model. We observe that by setting appropriately free parameters, energy conditions can be satisfied. Furthermore, we study the stability of the solutions in perturbations framework. In this case, we investigate stability conditions for de Sitter and power law solutions and we examine viability of cosmological evolution of these perturbations. The results show that for some values of the input parameters, for which energy conditions are satisfied, de Sitter and power-law solutions may be stable.

The aim of this paper is to construct regular Hayward thin-shell wormholes and analyze their stability. We adopt Israel formalism to calculate surface stresses of the shell and check the null and weak energy conditions for the constructed wormholes. It is found that the stress-energy tensor components violate the null and weak energy conditions leading to the presence of exotic matter at the throat. We analyze the attractive and repulsive characteristics of wormholes corresponding toar>0andar<0, respectively. We also explore stability conditions for the existence of traversable thin-shell wormholes with arbitrarily small amount of fluid describing cosmic expansion. We find that the space-time has nonphysical regions which give rise to event horizon for0<a0<2.8and the wormhole becomes nontraversable producing a black hole. The nonphysical region in the wormhole configuration decreases gradually and vanishes for the Hayward parameterl=0.9. It is concluded that the Hayward and Van der Waals quintessence parameters increase the stability of thin-shell wormholes.

Here we propose the extended modified gravity theory named [Formula: see text] gravity where [Formula: see text] is the Ricci scalar, [Formula: see text] is the Gauss–Bonnet invariant, and [Formula: see text] is the trace of the stress-energy tensor. We derive the gravitational field equations in [Formula: see text] gravity by taking the least action principle. Next we construct the [Formula: see text] in terms of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in de Sitter as well as power-law expansion. We also construct [Formula: see text] if the expansion follows the finite-time future singularity (big rip singularity). We investigate the energy conditions in this modified theory of gravity and examine the validity of all energy conditions.

This paper investigates stability of thin-shell developed from the matching of interior traversable wormhole with exterior Ayon–Beato–Garcia–de Sitter regular black hole through cut and paste approach. We employ Israel formalism and Lanczos equations to obtain the components of surface stress-energy tensor at thin-shell. These surface stresses violate null and weak energy conditions that suggest the presence of exotic matter at thin-shell. The surface pressure explains collapse as well as expanding behavior of the developed geometry. We explore stability of the constructed thin-shell through both perturbations along shell radius as well as barotropic equation of state for three appropriate values of the shape function [Formula: see text]. It is concluded that stability of thin-shell depends on the shape function, charge and cosmological constant.

This paper is aimed to evaluate the existence of wormholes in viable [Formula: see text] gravity models (where [Formula: see text] is the scalar curvature and [Formula: see text] is the trace of stress–energy tensor of matter). The exact solutions for energy–momentum tensor components depending on different shapes and redshift functions are calculated without some additional constraints. To investigate this, we consider static spherically symmetric geometry with matter contents as anisotropic fluid and formulate the Einstein field equations for three different [Formula: see text] models. For each model, we derive expression for weak and null energy conditions and graphically analyzed its violation near the throat. It is really interesting that wormhole solutions do not require the presence of exotic matter — like that in general relativity. Finally, the stability of the solutions for each model is presented using equilibrium condition.

The renormalized quantum stress–energy tensor [Formula: see text] for a massive spinor field around global monopoles is constructed within the framework of Schwinger–DeWitt approximation, valid whenever the Compton length of the quantum field is much less than the characteristic radius of the curvature of the background geometry. The results obtained show that the quantum massive spinor field in the global monopole spacetime violates all the pointwise energy conditions.

This paper is devoted to construct Schwarzschild-de Sitter and anti-de Sitter thin-shell wormholes by employing Visser’s cut and paste technique. The Darmois-Israel formalism is adopted to formulate the surface stresses of the shell. We analyze null and weak energy conditions as well as attractive and repulsive characteristics of thin-shell wormholes. We also explore stable and unstable solutions against linear perturbations by taking two different Chaplygin gas models for exotic matter. It is concluded that the stress-energy tensor components violate the null and weak energy conditions indicating the existence of exotic matter at the wormhole throat. Finally, we find unstable and stable configurations for the constructed thin-shell wormholes.

AbstractA unified description of dark ingredients is realized by a vacuum dark fluid defined by symmetry of its stress-energy tensor and allowed by General Relativity. The symmetry is reduced compared with the maximally symmetric de Sitter vacuum, which makes vacuum dark fluid essentially anisotropic and allows its density and pressure to evolve. It represents distributed vacuum dark energy by a time-evolving and spatially inhomogeneous cosmological term, and vacuum dark matter by gravitational vacuum solitons which are regular gravitationally bound structures without horizons (dark particles or dark stars), with the de Sitter centre (Λδki) in de Sitter space (λδki).
