Wormholes and entangled states
The extended Schwarschild solution is an example of a non-traversable wormhole. It can be viewed as an entangled state of two black holes.
We will describe how direct interactions between the two black holes can render the wormhole traversable. We will also discuss traversable wormhole solutions in four dimensions.
