Wormholes in Dilatonic Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Theory

Abstract: We construct traversable wormholes in dilatonic Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory in four spacetime dimensions, without needing any form of exotic matter. We determine their domain of existence, and show that these wormholes satisfy a generalized Smarr relation. We demonstrate linear stability with respect to radial perturbations for a subset of these wormholes.

“…Both linearly perturbed solutions and solutions with nonlinear pulse input suffer the bifurcations of horizons and turn to either black hole or expanding throat. In order to obtain a robust wormhole solution for such a disturbance, we may have to work in modified gravity theories, as was recently reported in dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity [25].…”

“…We can find the articles from 1980s [22,23], and the recent studies include higher-curvature terms (see e.g. [24] and [25] and references therein). Most of the research concerns the solutions and their energy conditions mainly, but to our knowledge there is no general discussion on the stability analysis of the solutions.…”

“…We shall focus on static spacetimes in the strict sense which means spacetimes with a Killing vector field ξ which is everywhere timelike. For such spacetimes there exists a smooth 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold (M (3) , g (3) i j ) and a smooth lapse function N :…”

“…i and Ric (3) i j are the Levi-Civita connection and the Ricci tensor with respect to the metric g (3) i j . By the maximum principle for harmonic functions and by the asymptotic behavior of N we obtain that the values of N on M (3) obey…”
