(2+1)-dimensional Static Cyclic Symmetric Traversable Wormhole: Quasinormal Modes and Causality

In this paper we study a static cyclic symmetric traversable wormhole in $(2+1)-$dimensional gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics in anti-de Sitter spacetime. The solution is characterized by three parameters: mass $M$, cosmological constant $Λ$ and one electromagnetic parameter, $q_α$. The causality of this spacetime is studied, determining its maximal extension and constructing then the corresponding Kruskal-Szekeres and Penrose diagrams. The quasinormal modes (QNMs) that result from considering a massive scalar test field in the wormhole background are determined by solving in exact form the Klein-Gordon equation; the effective potential resembles the one of a harmonic oscillator shifted from its equilibrium position and, consequently, the QNMs have a pure point spectrum.
