TL;DR Summary
Do we know process of creating wormhole?
Black hole is real in nature and we know what is reason of it. If energy concentrate in sphere with radius which less gravitational radius then second cosmic velocity is speed of light and create black hole. We know process which can create these. If we know it we can realize quantum black hole useful colliders or other method in the future. In the past we didn't know about fact black hole is real or only theoretical object. Today we registered black hole and know that it's real object because experiment show it. We can't find wormhole too. But do we know about process which can create it like in situations with theory of black hole (black hole can realize when energy (mass) concentrate in sphere with little radius)? Or we only know that it can be real. If we know it tell me please what should I read for know theory which tell about it?

As I recall, to create a wormhole classically one would need a time machine :(. (Such as, for instance, closed time-like curves). For a reference, see the Morris-Thorne-Yurtserver paper, "Wormholes, Time machines, and the weak energy condition", https://authors.library.caltech.edu/9262/1/MORprl88.pdf. See the section on "wormhole creation".

Morris, et al, suggests that wormholes might be created by quantum methods, possibly even arising naturally from the hypothetical "quantum foam". To be useful, though, such wormholes would need to be stabilized. This requires "exotic matter", matter that violates the weak energy condition. The above paper talks about this in more depth.

Kip Thorne, one of the co-authors of the above paper, talks a bit about this very briefly, in more popular and less technical language, in his book, "Black holes and Time Warps: Einstein's Outrageous Legacy". The book is not bad for a popularization, though at PF the moderators recommend posting references to peer-reviewed papers.

Thank you for answer. I'll think about it
 
In this video I can see a person walking around lines of curvature on a sphere with an arrow strapped to his waist. His task is to keep the arrow pointed in the same direction How does he do this ? Does he use a reference point like the stars? (that only move very slowly) If that is how he keeps the arrow pointing in the same direction, is that equivalent to saying that he orients the arrow wrt the 3d space that the sphere is embedded in? So ,although one refers to intrinsic curvature...
I started reading a National Geographic article related to the Big Bang. It starts these statements: Gazing up at the stars at night, it’s easy to imagine that space goes on forever. But cosmologists know that the universe actually has limits. First, their best models indicate that space and time had a beginning, a subatomic point called a singularity. This point of intense heat and density rapidly ballooned outward. My first reaction was that this is a layman's approximation to...
So, to calculate a proper time of a worldline in SR using an inertial frame is quite easy. But I struggled a bit using a "rotating frame metric" and now I'm not sure whether I'll do it right. Couls someone point me in the right direction? "What have you tried?" Well, trying to help truly absolute layppl with some variation of a "Circular Twin Paradox" not using an inertial frame of reference for whatevere reason. I thought it would be a bit of a challenge so I made a derivation or...
