Wormhole can also be depicted in a Penrose diagram of a Schwarzschild black hole. In the Penrose diagram, an object traveling faster than light will cross the black hole and will emerge from another end into a different space, time or universe. This will be an inter-universal wormhole.
If one goes further and sets to 0, the metric becomes that of Minkowski space-time, the flat space-time of the special theory of relativity. In Minkowski space-time every timelike and every lightlike (null) geodesic is a straight 'world line' that projects onto a straight-line geodesic of an equatorial cross section of a time slice of constant ...
The space that this male fiddler crab (a chiral object) lives in, a Möbius strip, is non-orientable. Note that the fiddler crab flips to being its own mirror image with every complete circulation. In wormhole theory, a non-orientable wormhole is a wormhole connection that appears to reverse the chirality of anything passed
The paper—published in the journal Physical Review D by Zelnikov and his team—puts forth calculations that claim a ring wormhole could not only act as a universe-to-universe teleport, but as a ...
Paul Davies, How to build a time machine, 2002, Penguin popular science, ISBN 0-14-100534-3 gives a very brief non-mathematical description of Gott's alternative; the specific setup is not intended by Gott as the best-engineered approach to moving backwards in time, rather, it is a theoretical argument for a non-wormhole means of time travel.
The Ellis drainhole is the earliest-known complete mathematical model of a traversable wormhole.It is a static, spherically symmetric solution of the Einstein vacuum field equations augmented by inclusion of a scalar field minimally coupled to the geometry of space-time with coupling polarity opposite to the orthodox polarity (negative instead of positive):
ER = EPR is a conjecture in physics stating that two entangled particles (a so-called Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen or EPR pair) are connected by a wormhole (or Einstein–Rosen bridge) [1] [2] and is thought by some to be a basis for unifying general relativity and quantum mechanics into a theory of everything.

In Einstein’s theory, space and time relate to each other. That’s why it’s called space-time. So as the black hole is rotating, it’s actually going to cause a twisting of time.” ...
