Stable Wormholes in the Background of an Exponential f(R) Gravity

Abstract

The current paper is devoted to investigating wormhole solutions with an exponential gravity model in the background of f ( R ) theory. Spherically symmetric static spacetime geometry is chosen to explore wormhole solutions with anisotropic fluid source. The behavior of the traceless matter is studied by employing a particular equation of state to describe the important properties of the shape-function of the wormhole geometry. Furthermore, the energy conditions and stability analysis are done for two specific shape-functions. It is seen that the energy condition are to be violated for both of the shape-functions chosen here. It is concluded that our results are stable and realistic.
