A new shape function and some specific wormhole solutions in braneworld scenario

Abstract

Considering an energy density of the form [Formula: see text] (where [Formula: see text] is an arbitrary positive constant with dimension of energy density and [Formula: see text]), a shape function is obtained by using field equations of braneworld gravity theory in this paper. Under isotropic scenario wormhole solutions are obtained considering six different redshift functions along with the obtained new shape function. For anisotropic case, wormhole solutions are obtained under the consideration of five different shape functions along with the redshift function [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is an arbitrary constant. In each case all energy conditions are examined and it is found that for some cases all energy conditions are satisfied in the vicinity of the wormhole throat and for the rest of the cases all energy conditions are satisfied except strong energy condition.
