We consider here the general conditions for the stability of brane stars that obey a so called a "minimal setup": the nonlocal anisotropic stress and energy flux are everywhere absent, and the only permitted Weyl correction is the interior solution of the nonlocal energy density. Along with a series of simple conditions, we show that the Germani-Maartens solution with a constant density sets up the upper bound for the compactness of that particular class of brane stars. The general demonstration is based upon the properties of the interior solutions of the stars, although we also show that the minimal setup implies a Schwarzschild exterior.

  1. Compact stars in a large-tension braneworld: mildly negative Weyl coupling consistent with NICER and gravitational-wave data

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0

    A large-tension braneworld with α_U ≈ −0.15 fits NICER and GW170817 data for SLy, raising M_max to ~2.30 M_⊙ and R_1.4 to ~13.3 km relative to GR.

  2. Buchdahl stars and bounds with cosmological constant

    gr-qc 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Generalized Buchdahl bounds on horizonless object compactness are derived in the presence of a cosmological constant, preserving universality while yielding method-dependent results.
