The current paper is devoted to investigating wormhole solutions with an exponential gravity model in the background of f ( R ) theory. Spherically symmetric static spacetime geometry is chosen to explore wormhole solutions with anisotropic fluid source. The behavior of the traceless matter is studied by employing a particular equation of state to describe the important properties of the shape-function of the wormhole geometry. Furthermore, the energy conditions and stability analysis are done for two specific shape-functions. It is seen that the energy condition are to be violated for both of the shape-functions chosen here. It is concluded that our results are stable and realistic.

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.

In this recent study, we shall investigate the wormhole models with a Hu–Sawicki model in the framework of f ℛ gravity. Spherically static symmetric space-time is considered to construct wormhole models with the anisotropic fluid distribution. The traceless matter is discussed by imposing a particular equation of state. To address the important conditions of the shape function of the wormhole geometry, we have used the particular values of the involved parameters. Furthermore, different energy conditions are discussed to check the nature of matter against two specific models. The null energy condition is observed to be violated for both of the models. It is mentioned that our inquired results are acceptable.

This work aims to investigate the wormhole solutions in the background of [Formula: see text] theory of gravity, where [Formula: see text] is Ricci scalar, [Formula: see text] is scalar potential, and [Formula: see text] is the kinetic term. We consider spherically symmetric static space–time for exploring the wormhole geometry with anisotropic fluid. For our current analysis, we consider a particular equation of state parameter to study the behavior of traceless fluid and examine the physical behavior of energy density and pressure components. Furthermore, we also choose a particular shape function and explore the energy conditions. It can be noticed that energy conditions are violated for both shape functions. The violation of energy conditions indicates the existence of exotic matter and wormhole. Therefore, it can be concluded that our results are stable and realistic. The interesting feature of this work is to show two- and three-dimensional plotting for the analysis of wormhole geometry.

This paper deals with some wormhole solutions which are obtained by taking two different shape functions along with zero tidal force. For obtaining wormhole solutions, anisotropic fluid and a equation of state [Formula: see text] related by Chaplygin gas are considered, where [Formula: see text] is the energy density, [Formula: see text] is tangential pressure and [Formula: see text] is positive constant. Energy conditions are examined for two different models, and it is found that major energy conditions are satisfied in a region.

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.

The paper deals with the static spherically symmetric wormhole solutions in [Formula: see text]-modified gravity theory with anisotropic matter field and for some particular choices for the shape functions. This work may be considered as an extension of the general formalism in [S. Halder, S. Bhattacharya and S. Chakraborty, Phys. Lett. B 791, 270 (2019)] for finding wormhole solutions. For isotropic matter distribution it has been shown that wormhole solutions are possible for zero tidal force and it modifies the claim in [M. Cataldo, L. Leimpi and P. Rodriguez, Phys. Lett. B 757, 130 (2016)]. Finally, energy conditions are examined and it is found that all energy conditions are satisfied in a particular domain with a particular choice of the shape function.

Considering an energy density of the form [Formula: see text] (where [Formula: see text] is an arbitrary positive constant with dimension of energy density and [Formula: see text]), a shape function is obtained by using field equations of braneworld gravity theory in this paper. Under isotropic scenario wormhole solutions are obtained considering six different redshift functions along with the obtained new shape function. For anisotropic case, wormhole solutions are obtained under the consideration of five different shape functions along with the redshift function [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is an arbitrary constant. In each case all energy conditions are examined and it is found that for some cases all energy conditions are satisfied in the vicinity of the wormhole throat and for the rest of the cases all energy conditions are satisfied except strong energy condition.

Our aim is to discuss spherically symmetric static wormholes with the Lorentzian signature in the Einsteinian cubic gravity for two different models of pressure sources. First, we calculate the modified fields equations for the Einsteinian cubic gravity for the wormhole geometry under the anisotropic matter. Then we investigate the shape-function for two different models, which can be taken as a part of the general relation, namely, [Formula: see text]. We further study the energy conditions for both the models in the background of the Einsteinian cubic gravity. We show that our obtained shape-functions satisfy all the necessary conditions for the existence of wormhole solutions in the Einsteinian cubic gravity for some particular values of the different involved parameters. We also discuss the behavior of the energy conditions especially the null and the weak energy conditions for the wormhole models in the Einsteinian cubic gravity.

AbstractFollowing the recent theory of f(Q) gravity, we continue to investigate the possible existence of wormhole geometries, where Q is the non-metricity scalar. Recently, the non-metricity scalar and the corresponding field equations have been studied for some spherically symmetric configurations in Mustafa (Phys Lett B 821:136612, 2021) and Lin and Zhai (Phys Rev D 103:124001, 2021). One can note that field equations are different in these two studies. Following Lin and Zhai (2021), we systematically study the field equations for wormhole solutions and found the violation of null energy conditions in the throat neighborhood. More specifically, considering specific choices for the f(Q) form and for constant redshift with different shape functions, we present a class of solutions for static and spherically symmetric wormholes. Our survey indicates that wormhole solutions could not exist for specific form function $$f(Q)= Q+ \alpha Q^2$$ f ( Q ) = Q + α Q 2 . To summarize, exact wormhole models can be constructed with violation of the null energy condition throughout the spacetime while being $$\rho \ge 0$$ ρ ≥ 0 and vice versa.
