Born–Infeld inspired modifications of gravity

JB Jiménez, L Heisenberg, GJ Olmo, D Rubiera-Garcia - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
General Relativity has shown an outstanding observational success in the scales where it
has been directly tested. However, modifications have been intensively explored in the …

Modeling wormholes in gravity

P Moraes, PK Sahoo - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
In this work, we propose the modeling of static wormholes within the f (R, T) extended theory
of gravity perspective. We present some models of wormholes, which are constructed from …

Shadows of rotating wormholes

R Shaikh - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
We study shadows cast by a certain class of rotating wormholes and point out the crucial
role of a rotating wormhole throat in the formation of a shadow. Overlooking this crucial role …

Analytical general solutions for static wormholes in f (R, T) gravity

P Moraes, RAC Correa, RV Lobato - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
Originally proposed as a tool for teaching the general theory of relativity, wormholes are
today approached in many different ways and are seeing as an efficient alternative for …

Junction conditions in Palatini f (R) gravity

GJ Olmo, D Rubiera-Garcia - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We work out the junction conditions for f (R) gravity formulated in metric-affine (Palatini)
spaces using a tensor distributional approach. These conditions are needed for building …

Stability of self-gravitating anisotropic fluids in f (R, T) gravity

MZ Bhatti, Z Yousaf, M Yousaf - Physics of the Dark Universe, 2020 - Elsevier
This manuscript aims to discuss the factors holding in/stability of axially symmetric compact
system with anisotropic environment in the background of f (R, T) gravity, where R is …

Strong gravitational lensing by wormholes

R Shaikh, P Banerjee, S Paul… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
We study strong gravitational lensing by a class of static wormhole geometries. Analytical
approaches to the same are developed, and the results differ substantially from strong …

Static spherical wormhole models in f (R, T) gravity

Z Yousaf, M Ilyas, M Zaeem-ul-Haq Bhatti - The European Physical …, 2017 - Springer
This paper explores the possibility of the existence of wormhole geometries coupled with
relativistic matter configurations by taking a particular model of f(R,T) f (R, T) gravity (where T …

Palatini formulation of f(RT) gravity theory, and its cosmological implications

J Wu, G Li, T Harko, SD Liang - The European Physical Journal C, 2018 - Springer
We consider the Palatini formulation of f (R, T) gravity theory, in which a non-minimal
coupling between the Ricci scalar and the trace of the energy-momentum tensor is …
