Thin-shell wormholes in $N$-dimensional $F(R)$ gravity

Abstract

In this work, spherically symmetric thin-shell wormholes with a conformally invariant Maxwell field for N -dimensional F (R) gravity and constant scalar curvature R are built. Two cases are considered: symmetric wormholes and asymmetric ones in the scalar curvature. Their stability under radial perturbations is analyzed, finding stable solutions made of exotic matter for a given range of the parameters.
