Searching for Wormholes Beyond Horndeski Theories

  • 1. Institute for Nuclear Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 60th October Anniversary Prospect, 7a, 117312 Moscow (Russian Federation)

Description

We discuss whether it is possible to construct a stable, static, spherically symmetric Lorentzian wormhole in beyond Horndeski theory. The deep analogy between the cosmological bounce and wormhole scenarios is described in detail. We show explicitly that going beyond Horndeski enables one to evade the no-go theorem formulated for the wormholes in the general Horndeski case.
