Thin shell wormholes in higher dimensiaonal Einstein-Maxwell theory

TL;DR

This paper constructs and analyzes the stability of thin shell wormholes in higher-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory, focusing on their stability under radial perturbations and the amount of exotic matter required.

Contribution

It introduces a method to build higher-dimensional thin shell wormholes and assesses their stability and matter requirements using the 'Cut and Paste' technique.

Findings

Stable wormhole configurations identified under radial perturbations

Quantified exotic matter needed at the wormhole throat

Extended wormhole models to higher dimensions with electromagnetic fields

Abstract

We construct thin shell Lorentzian wormholes in higher dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory applying the ' Cut and Paste ' technique proposed by Visser. The linearized stability is analyzed under radial perturbations around some assumed higher dimensional spherically symmetric static solution of the Einstein field equations in presence of Electromagnetic field. We determine the total amount of exotic matter, which is concentrated at the wormhole throat.
