Abstract
We solve the Euclidean Einstein equations with three-index antisymmetric and two-index antisymmetric (electromagnetic) tensors for monopole configurations on a space with three-surfaces of topology and describe wormhole solutions. We show that these wormholes and the one of Giddings and Strominger, Hawking, Halliwell and Laflamme, and Myers can be obtained by slicing five-dimensional spaces with horizons.
