Three degenerate wormhole spacetimes derived from standard vacuum metrics via branching transformations are matter-free in the Palatini-Cartan formulation and lack a continuous limit from their non-degenerate counterparts.
Using an extended equivalence principle on the Klinkhamer metric, the radial dynamics of a degenerate wormhole reduce to test-particle fall in Schwarzschild spacetime, proving collapse of bound traversable states into Einstein-Rosen wormholes with a long lifetime estimate.
