Generalised Ellis–Bronnikov wormholes embedded in warped braneworld background and energy conditions

Abstract Ellis–Bronnikov (EB) wormholes require violation of null energy conditions at the ‘throat’. This problem was cured by a simple modification of the ‘shape function’, which introduces a new parameter $$m\ge 2$$ m ≥ 2 ( $$m=2$$ m = 2 corresponds to the EB model). This leads to a generalised (G...
