In this work, we consider the possibility that wormhole geometries are sustained by their own quantum fluctuations, in the context of modified dispersion relations. More specifically, the energy density of the graviton one-loop contribution to a classical energy in a wormhole background is considered as a self-consistent source for wormholes. In this semiclassical context, we consider specific choices for the rainbow’s functions and find solutions for wormhole geometries in the cis-Planckian…

Traversable Wormholes in Distorted Gravity
It is shown that for every framework, the self-sustained equation will produce a Wheeler wormhole, namely a wormhole of Planckian size, which means that, from the point of view of traversability, the wormhole will be traversable in principle, but not in practice.

Wormhole solutions in a generalized hybrid metric-Palatini matter theory, given by a gravitational Lagrangian $f\left(R,\cal{R}\right)$, where $R$ is the metric Ricci scalar, and $\mathcal{R}$ is a
Distorting general relativity: gravity's rainbow and f(R) theories at work
We compute the Zero Point Energy in a spherically symmetric background combining the high energy distortion of Gravity's Rainbow with the modification induced by a f(R) theory. Here f(R) is a generic
