Not Just Science Fiction: 'Electromagnetic Wormhole' Possible, Say Mathematicians Science Daily —
The team of mathematicians that first created the mathematics behind
the "invisibility cloak" announced by physicists last October has now
shown that the same technology could be used to generate an
"electromagnetic wormhole."
