Abstract
We investigate braneworlds modeled by topological solutions that arise from the so-called Cuscuta-Galileon model. We develop a first order framework and illustrate our procedure with the scalar field having the well-known hyperbolic tangent profile. We find conditions that must be imposed to the parameters of the model in order to have solutions connecting minima of the potential, with the brane constrained to interpolate Minkowski and anti de Sitter geometries. We also find solutions where the brane only interpolates anti de Sitter geometry. In both cases, the gravity sector of the brane is stable against small fluctuations of the metric.
