TL;DR

This paper explores how the Generalized Uncertainty Principle influences Casimir wormholes within $f(Q)$ gravity, analyzing energy conditions, exotic matter, and equation of state parameters to understand their physical viability.

Contribution

It introduces the effects of two GUP models on Casimir wormholes in $f(Q)$ gravity, including energy condition analysis and exotic matter quantification, which is a novel combination.

Findings

Some energy conditions are violated at the wormhole throat.

The amount of exotic matter required can be quantified using volume integrals.

GUP influences the behavior of equation of state parameters in wormhole solutions.

Abstract

We have presented systematically the effect of the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) in Casimir wormholes space-time in the recently proposed modified gravity, the so-called symmetric teleparallel gravity or $f(Q)$ gravity. Here $Q$ is the non-metricity scalar that drives the gravitation interaction. We consider two famous GUP relations, such as the Kempf, Mangano, and Mann (KMM) model and the Detournay, Gabriel, and Spindel (DGS) model, in our study. Besides this, we investigate with three different redshift functions under anisotropic fluid located at the throat. Further, we analyzed the obtained wormhole solutions with energy conditions, especially null energy conditions (NEC) at the throat of the wormhole, and encountered that some arbitrary quantity disrespects the classical energy conditions at the wormhole throat of radius $r_0$. Later, the ADM mass and the volume integral quantifier are also discussed to calculate the amount of exotic matter required near the wormhole throat. Additionally, we show the behavior of the equation of state parameters under the effect of GUP.
