Horizon singularity, energy conditions and shadows in time-dependent and spherically symmetric spacetime

Shin'ichi Nojiri, Sergei D. Odintsov, Diego Sáez-Chillón Gómez +1

Some dynamical spacetime solutions that describe ultra-compact objects are analysed. We show that by turning a static spacetime that describes a one-way wormhole into a dynamical t…

Observational signatures of negative mass wormholes through their shadows

Shin'ichi Nojiri, Sergei D. Odintsov, Diego Sáez-Chillón Gómez

Systems containing objects with negative mass (NMOs) are considered. Such a system consists of one object with positive mass and one NMO, where a bound state exists even though the…

May Negative Mass Objects exist in the sky?

Shin'ichi Nojiri, S. D. Odintsov

We conjecture the possibility of negative mass objects (NMOs) existing in the sky. It is shown that they may not be so exotic as usually expected. We show that NMOs appear as solut…

Is Phantom Divide Crossing in General Relativity Completely Impossible? Shortcomings in canonical and minimally coupled scalar field and Possible Solutions in -essence Models

Shin'ichi Nojiri, S. D. Odintsov, V. K. Oikonomou

General relativity has its successes at the local astrophysical level, however, it seems to be insufficient in describing the Universe at large scales. In this work we investigate…

Phantom Crossing and Oscillating Dark Energy with Gravity

Shin'ichi Nojiri, S. D. Odintsov, V. K. Oikonomou

In this work, we shall consider how a dynamical oscillating and phantom crossing dark energy era can be realized in the context of gravity. We approach the topic from a theo…

Non-metricity approach to Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity

Shin'ichi Nojiri, S. D. Odintsov

We construct 2d Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity in the framework of symmetric teleparallel gravity based on a non-metricity tensor. In symmetric teleparallel gravity, we often use t…

Wormholes inside stars and black holes

Shin'ichi Nojiri, S. D. Odintsov, Vladimir Folomeev

We construct models of two exotic objects: (i) a wormhole whose throat is hidden by a stellar object like a neutron star; and (ii) a wormhole inside a black hole. We work within Ei…

Propagation of Gravitational Waves in a Dynamical Wormhole Background for Two-scalar Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Theory

E. Elizalde, Shin'ichi Nojiri, S. D. Odintsov +1

In this work, we propose a model of Einstein--Gauss-Bonnet gravity coupled with two scalar fields. The two scalar fields are considered to be ``frozen'' or they become non-dynamica…
