Wormholes and Time-Machines

TL;DR

This paper explores the possibility of wormholes functioning as time-machines within quantum mechanics, examining whether such constructs can be consistent with established physical laws.

Contribution

It introduces quantum mechanical considerations to assess the feasibility of wormholes as self-consistent time-machines.

Findings

Quantum effects may impose constraints on wormhole time-machine viability

Self-consistency conditions could prevent paradoxes in wormhole time-travel scenarios

Further research needed to fully understand quantum implications

Abstract

It has been proposed that wormholes can be made to function as time-machines. This opens up the question of whether this can be accomodated within a self-consistent physics or not. In this contribution we present some quantum mechanical considerations in this respect.
