The concept of traversable wormhole, a hypothetical tunnel-like structure is initially proposed by Morris and Thorne (Am. J. Phys. 56, 395 (1988)) by using Einstein’s general relativity theory. Harko et al. (Phys. Rev. D 84, 024020 (2011)) defined [Formula: see text] gravity as an extended gravitational theory having terms [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] as Ricci scalar and trace of energy momentum respectively. In this article, we explore wormhole models for the framework of [Formula: see text] gravity by using two different shape functions. The first shape function is [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] (proposed by Mishra and Sharma, arXiv:2003.00298v1 , 2020) and second is a hyperbolic shape function which is of the form [Formula: see text]. Geometrical behavior of wormholes are discussed in anisotropic scenario by using equation of state [Formula: see text]. The stability of models are analyzed by using equilibrium condition and determining gravitational force, anisotropic force, hydrostatic force and force due to modified gravity. For the validation of null energy condition and weak energy condition, significant role of shape function is illustrated for the presence of nonexotic matter.

AbstractWe study Morris–Thorne static traversable wormhole solutions in different modified theories of gravity. We focus our study on the quadratic gravity $$f({\mathscr {R}}) = {\mathscr {R}}+a{\mathscr {R}}^2$$ f ( R ) = R + a R 2 , power-law $$f({\mathscr {R}}) = f_0{\mathscr {R}}^n$$ f ( R ) = f 0 R n , log-corrected $$f({\mathscr {R}})={\mathscr {R}}+\alpha {\mathscr {R}}^2+\beta {\mathscr {R}}^2\ln \beta {\mathscr {R}}$$ f ( R ) = R + α R 2 + β R 2 ln β R theories, and finally on the exponential hybrid metric-Palatini gravity $$f(\mathscr {\hat{R}})=\zeta \bigg (1+e^{-\frac{\hat{{\mathscr {R}}}}{\varPhi }}\bigg )$$ f ( R ^ ) = ζ ( 1 + e - R ^ Φ ) . Wormhole fluid near the throat is adopted to be anisotropic, and redshift factor to have a constant value. We solve numerically the Einstein field equations and we derive the suitable shape function for each MOG of our consideration by applying the equation of state $$p_t=\omega \rho $$ p t = ω ρ . Furthermore, we investigate the null energy condition, the weak energy condition, and the strong energy condition with the suitable shape function b(r). The stability of Morris–Thorne traversable wormholes in different modified gravity theories is also analyzed in our paper with a modified Tolman–Oppenheimer–Voklov equation. Besides, we have derived general formulas for the extra force that is present in MTOV due to the non-conserved stress-energy tensor.

In this study, we shall explore conformal symmetry to examine the wormhole models by considering traceless fluid. In this regard, we shall take anisotropic fluid with spherically symmetric space-time. Further, we shall calculate the properties of shape-functions, which are necessary for the existence of wormhole geometry. The presence of exotic matter is confirmed in all the cases through the violation of the Null Energy Condition. Furthermore, we have discussed the stability of wormhole solutions through the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff (TOV) equation. It is observed that our acquired solutions are stable under the particular values of involved parameters in different cases in conformal symmetry.

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.

In this paper, we examine the wormhole solutions by taking two different anisotropic models in Rastall gravity. For this purpose, we shall discuss anisotropic fluid to construct two different anisotropic models. Further, we shall employ two specific shape functions to calculate the behavior of energy conditions. The presence of exotic matter is confirmed in all the cases of this study due to the violation of the null energy condition. All the properties of shape function under both anisotropic models are fulfilled. It is noticed that wormhole solutions exist under the particular values of involved parameters in different cases in Rastall gravity.

It is known that wormhole geometry could be found solving the Einstein field equations by tolerating the violation of null energy condition (NEC). Violation of NEC is not possible for the physical matter distributions, however, it can be achieved by considering distributions of “exotic matter”. The main purpose of this work is to find generating functions comprising the wormhole-like geometry and discuss the nature of these generating functions. We have used the Herrera et al. [Phys. Rev. D 77, 027502 (2008)] approaches of obtaining generating functions in the background of wormhole spacetime. Here we have adopted two approaches for solving the field equations to find wormhole geometry. In the first method, we have assumed the redshift function f(r) and the shape function b(r) and solve for the generating functions. In another attempt, we assume generating functions and redshift functions and then try to find shape functions of the wormholes.

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.

Recently, black hole and brane production at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been widely discussed. We suggest that there is a possibility to test causality at the LHC. We argue that if the scale of quantum gravity is of the order of few TeVs, proton-proton collisions at the LHC could lead to the formation of time machines (spacetime regions with closed timelike curves) which violate causality. One model for the time machine is a traversable wormhole. We argue that the traversable wormhole production cross section at the LHC is of the same order as the cross section for the black hole production. Traversable wormholes assume violation of the null energy condition (NEC) and an exotic matter similar to the dark energy is required. Decay of the wormholes/time machines and signatures of time machine events at the LHC are discussed.

In this paper, we search for dynamical traversable wormhole solutions in the modified [Formula: see text] theory of gravity, [Formula: see text] being the torsion scalar. For such a wormhole, the time dependence is inserted in the static traversable wormhole metric of Morris and Thorne. Two set of tetrads are adopted: the diagonal and the nondiagonal tetrads. The diagonal set of tetrads constrains and reduces [Formula: see text] model to teleparallel theory where usual solutions have been found. With diagonal set of tetrads, free from the teleparallel theory constraint, our results show that the existence of traversable wormhole is possible only for nondynamical spacetime metric, i.e. static traversable wormhole solutions. Moreover we take into account energy condition analysis and the results show that the violation of null energy condition is not determinant for existence of static traversable wormhole solutions.

In this paper, we examine the embedded wormhole solutions in the modified [Formula: see text] theory of gravity, where [Formula: see text] denotes the trace of the energy–momentum tensor and [Formula: see text] is the Ricci scalar. We derive the embedded class-1 solutions by considering spherically symmetric static spacetime. The shape function is calculated in the framework of embedded class-1 spacetime. It is necessary to mention here that the calculated shape function can be used in other modified theories of gravity. We explore the feasible solutions for the specific model of [Formula: see text] theory of gravity. Energy conditions have been explored using the approach mentioned above. Conclusively, we find that obtained wormhole solutions are acceptable, as the null energy condition is violated in the specific region.

This paper discusses the possible wormhole solutions in modified [Formula: see text] gravity by employing the two hybrid shape functions i.e. [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is constant. The solutions are accomplished by implementing the modified-gravity functions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text]. It is presented by investigating the energy constraints through the graphical analysis that the null energy conditions for the energy–momentum tensor are largely violated for our both models. Energy constraints connected to the matter source threading the possible wormhole structures are in general worked out, supporting the null energy constraints in the neighborhood of the wormhole neck. This concludes that threaded by the matter, the existence of the non-exotic wormhole geometries have been found in this gravity. Subsequently, it is shown that violation of the null energy condition may be accredited to the collective effects of the [Formula: see text] gravity and owing to the non-commutative geometry.
