Thin-shell wormholes in N-dimensional F(R) gravity

TL;DR

This paper constructs and analyzes the stability of spherically symmetric thin-shell wormholes in N-dimensional F(R) gravity with a conformally invariant Maxwell field, identifying stable solutions supported by exotic matter.

Contribution

It introduces a new model of thin-shell wormholes in N-dimensional F(R) gravity with conformally invariant Maxwell fields and analyzes their stability under radial perturbations.

Findings

Stable wormhole solutions exist within certain parameter ranges.

Both symmetric and asymmetric wormholes are considered.

Exotic matter is required to sustain the wormholes.

Abstract

In this work, spherically symmetric thin-shell wormholes with a conformally invariant Maxwell field for $N$-dimensional $F(R)$ gravity and constant scalar curvature $R$ are built. Two cases are considered: symmetric wormholes and asymmetric ones in the scalar curvature. Their stability under radial perturbations is analyzed, finding stable solutions made of exotic matter for a given range of the parameters.
