How to tell the shape of a wormhole by its quasinormal modes

Here we shall show how to reconstruct the shape function of a spherically symmetric traversable Lorenzian wormhole near its throat if one knows high frequency quasinormal modes of the wormhole. The wormhole spacetime is given by the Morris–Thorne ansatz. The solution to the inverse problem via fitting of the parameters within the WKB approach is unique for arbitrary tideless wormholes and some wormholes with non-zero tidal effects, but this is not so for arbitrary wormholes. As examples, we reproduce the near throat geometries of the Bronnikov–Ellis and tideless Morris–Thorne metrics by their quasinormal modes at high multipole numbers ℓ.
