Description

A thin-shell Lorentzian wormhole with spherical symmetry has been constructed in Einstein-Yang-Mills-Gauss-Bonnet theory. The generalized Darmois-Israel matching conditions are applied to the bounding shell and energy localized on the shell has been calculated. The amount of exotic matter for the existence of the wormhole has been evaluated and it has been shown graphically for certain choices of the parameters involved that ordinary matter is sufficient for the formation of thin-shell wormholes.
