Black holes and traversible wormholes: a synthesis
نویسنده
چکیده
A unified framework for black holes and traversible wormholes is described, where both are locally defined by outer trapping horizons, two-way traversible for wormholes and one-way traversible for black or white holes. In a two-dimensional dilaton gravity model, examples are given of: construction of wormholes from black holes; operation of wormholes for transport, including back-reaction; maintenance of an operating wormhole; and collapse of wormholes to black holes. In spherically symmetric Einstein gravity, several exotic matter models supporting wormhole solutions are proposed: ghost scalar fields, exotic fluids and pure ghost radiation.

Recent progress in wormhole dynamics
Space-time wormholes were introduced in Wheeler’s idea of space-time foam. Traversible wormholes as defined by Morris & Thorne became popular as potential short cuts across the universe and even time machines. More recently, the author proposed a general theory of wormhole dynamics, unified with black-hole dynamics. This article gives a brief review of the above ideas and summarizes progress on...
متن کاملClassical and quantum aspects of radiation fluid shells: Black holes and wormholes, mass amplification, light dark matter
A spherically symmetric thin shell out of the matter satisfying the ultrarelativistic state equation (radiation fluid) is considered. Description of black holes and traversable wormholes formed by such shells is given. We prove the theorem on the static states of shells of these types. The motivation of classical wormholes instability and restriction on the total energy becomes the corollary of...

متن کاملBlack Holes, Wormholes, and Gravitational Collapse
We study a possibility of the dynamical formation of traversable wormholes from gravitationally collapsing exotic matter clouds. For generic metric ansatz of exterior spacetimes, a crucial constraint that black holes and wormholes should satisfy is obtained through the junction conditions on the edge. As a result, it is shown that the wormhole geometry cannot be formed by following the usual Op...
متن کاملGeneric wormhole throats
Wormholes and black holes have, apart from a few historical oddities, traditionally been treated a quite separate objects with relatively little overlap. The possibility of a connection arises in that wormholes, if they exist, might have profound influence on black holes, their event horizons, and their internal structure. For instance: (1) small wormhole-induced perturbations in the geometry c...
