Convergence of Scalar-Tensor theories toward General Relativity and Primordial Nucleosynthesis
In this paper, we analyze the conditions for convergence toward General Relativity of scalar-tensor gravity theories defined by an arbitrary coupling function α (in the Einstein frame). We show that, in general, the evolution of the scalar field (φ) is governed by two opposite mechanisms: an attraction mechanism which tends to drive scalar-tensor models toward Einstein’s theory, and a repulsion...
متن کاملScalar-tensor cosmologies: general relativity as a fixed point of the Jordan frame scalar field
We study the evolution of homogeneous and isotropic, flat cosmological models within the general scalar-tensor theory of gravity with arbitrary coupling function and potential and scrutinize its limit to general relativity. Using the methods of dynamical systems for the decoupled equation of the Jordan frame scalar field we find the fixed points of flows in two cases: potential domination and m...
متن کاملHamiltonian analysis of higher derivative scalar-tensor theories
We perform a Hamiltonian analysis of a large class of scalar-tensor Lagrangians which depend quadratically on the second derivatives of a scalar field. By resorting to a convenient choice of dynamical variables, we show that the Hamiltonian can be written in a very simple form, where the Hamiltonian and the momentum constraints are easily identified. In the case of degenerate Lagrangians, which...
متن کاملScalar-tensor theories with pseudoscalar couplings
We consider the scalar-tensor theories of gravity extended by the pseudoscalar couplings to matter and gauge fields and derive constraints on the CP -odd combinations of scalar and pseudoscalar couplings from laboratory spin precession experiments and from the evolution of photon polarization over cosmological distances. We show the complimentary character of local and cosmological constraints,...
متن کاملCosmological models in scalar tensor theories of gravity and observations: a class of general solutions
Aims. To study cosmological models in scalar tensor theories of gravity with power law potentials as models of an accelerating universe. Methods. We consider cosmological models in scalar tensor theories of gravity that describe an accelerating universe, and we study a family of inverse power law potentials, for which exact solutions of the Einstein equations are known. We also compare theoreti...
