It is known that static traversable wormholes in Einstein gravity are supported by matter that violates null energy conditions (NEC). Essentially, such wormholes will be characterized by a central throat with anisotropic matter lining the throat that violates NEC. This, in turn, provides viable geometry for the wormhole to sustain. In 2018, Herrera [Phys. Rev. D 97, 044010 (2018)] introduced a new classification for spherically symmetric bodies called “complexity factor.” It was proposed that a spherically symmetric non-trivial geometry can be classified as complex or non-complex based on the nature of the inhomogeneity and anisotropy of the stress–energy tensors with only homogeneous and isotropic matter distribution leading to null complexity. Mathematically, there was also another way of obtaining zero complexity geometry. In this context, since static traversable wormholes, by default, are characterized by anisotropic and inhomogeneous matter stress tensors, the question we answer is whether it is possible to obtain zero complexity class of wormholes supported by exotic matter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
