Domain wall brane in a reduced Born–Infeld-f(T) theory

The Born–Infeld f(T) theory is reduced from the Born–Infeld determinantal gravity in Weitzenböck spacetime. We investigate a braneworld scenario in this theory and obtain an analytic domain wall solution by utilizing the first-order formalism. The model is stable against the linear tensor perturbati...
