Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

We consider a topologically nontrivial thin-shell wormhole with a throat in the form of a ${T}^{2}$ torus. It is shown that (i) such a wormhole is stable with respect to excitations of the throat; (ii) not all energy conditions are violated for such wormholes; (iii) if any of the energy conditions is violated, this violation occurs only partially in some region on the throat, and in other regions the violation is absent. Also, we discuss the differences between spherical ${S}^{2}$ wormholes and toroidal ${T}^{2}$ wormholes under investigation.
