Cosmology in Brans-Dicke theory with a scalar potential
We consider the general behaviour of cosmologies in Brans-Dicke theory where the dilaton is self-interacting via a potential V (Φ). We show that the general radiation universe is a two-dimensional dynamical system whereas the dust or false vacuum universe is threedimensional. This is in contrast to the non-interacting dilaton which has uniformly a two-dimensional phase space. We find the phase ...
متن کاملBrans-Dicke cosmology with a scalar field potential
– Three solutions of the Brans-Dicke theory with a self-interacting quartic potential and perfect fluid distribution are presented for a spatially flat FRW geometry. The physical behavior is consistent with the recent cosmological scenario favored by supernova type-Ia observations, indicating an accelerated expansion of the Universe. Introduction. – Recent observations of type-Ia supernovae wit...
متن کاملMultidimensional Inhomogeneous Cosmology in Scalar Tensor Theory
Exact cosmological solutions are obtained for a five dimensional inhomogeneous fluid distribution along with a Brans-Dicke type of scalar field. The set includes varied forms of matter field including ρ+ p = 0, where p is the 3D isotropic pressure. Depending on the signature of 4-space curvature our solutions admit of indefinite expansion in the usual 3-space and dimensional reduction of the fi...
متن کاملBrane cosmology with a bulk scalar field
We consider " cosmologically symmetric " (i.e. solutions with homogeneity and isotropy along three spatial dimensions) five-dimensional spacetimes with a scalar field and a three-brane representing our universe. We write Einstein's equations in a conformal gauge, using light-cone coordinates. We obtain explicit solutions: a. assuming proportionality between the scalar field and the logarithm of...
متن کاملQuantum Cosmology in Bergmann-Wagoner Scalar-tensor Gravitational Theory
The Wheeler-DeWitt equation is solved for the Bergmann-Wagoner scalartensor gravitational theory in the case of Friedmann-RobertsonWalker cosmological model. We present solutions for several cosmological functions: i)λ(φ) = 0, ii)λ(φ) = 3Λ0φ and iii) a more complex λ(φ), that depends on the choice of the coupling function, considering closed, flat and hyperbolic Friedmann universes (k = 1, 0,−1...
