Under suitable conditions, this fixed point corresponds to the throat of a traversable wormhole, <em>i.e.</em>, <em>b</em>(<em>r</em><sub>0</sub>) = <em>r</em><sub>0</sub> for the shape function <em>b</em> = <em>b</em>(<em>r</em>). The possible existence of wormholes can therefore be deduced from purely mathematical considerations without going beyond the existing physical requirements.展开更多

文摘The Brouwer fixed-point theorem in topology states that for any continuous mapping <em>f</em> on a compact convex set into itself admits a fixed point, <em>i.e.</em>, a point <em>x</em><sub>0</sub> such that<em> f</em>(<em>x</em><sub>0</sub>) = <em>x</em><sub>0</sub>. Under suitable conditions, this fixed point corresponds to the throat of a traversable wormhole, <em>i.e.</em>, <em>b</em>(<em>r</em><sub>0</sub>) = <em>r</em><sub>0</sub> for the shape function <em>b</em> = <em>b</em>(<em>r</em>). The possible existence of wormholes can therefore be deduced from purely mathematical considerations without going beyond the existing physical requirements.
