Traversable wormholes and the geometry of effective exoticity

One of the useful lessons of general relativity is that the Einstein equations are not, by themselves, especially conservative about the kinds of geometries they permit. Smooth Lorentzian metrics can describe black holes, gravitational waves, expanding cosmologies, singularity formation, and … Continue reading
