چکیده
The formulation of Brans-Dicke (BD) gravity with matter in the Einstein frame is realized as Einstein gravity with dilaton and dilaton coupled matter. We calculate the one-loop 4d anomaly–induced effective action (EA) due to N dilaton coupled massless fermions on the time dependent conformally flat background with non-trivial dilaton. Using such (complete) effective action, the (fourth-order) quantum–corrected equations of motion are derived. One special solution of these equations representing an inflationary Universe (with exponential scale factor) and (much slower) expanding BD dilaton is given. Similarly, 2d quantum BD Universe with time–dependent dilaton is constructed. In the last case, the dynamics is completely due to quantum effects.

Inflationary Brans-Dicke Quantum Universe II: Particular evolutions and stability analysis
We made an analysis of the equations of motion which are obtained from the one–loop effective action for Brans–Dicke gravity with N dilaton–coupled massless fermions in a time–dependent conformally flat background [1]. Various particular solutions, including the well-known stationary one, of the corresponding set of first-order differential equations are given. Some of these solutions describe ...
متن کاملDensity Fluctuations in Inflationary Models with Multiple Scalar Fields
Making use of the primordially isocurvature fluctuations, which are generated in inflationary models with multiple scalar fields, we make a phenomenological model that predicts formation of primordial black holes which can account for the massive compact halo objects recently observed. In inflationary universe models [1] with multiple scalar fields, not only adiabatic [2] but also primordially ...
متن کاملEinstein-Brans-Dicke Cosmology
We studied the Einstein-Brans-Dicke cosmology in detail. The difference of the evolution of the universe is significant between Einstein-Brans-Dicke cosmology and standard big-bang model during the radiation-dominated era. The power-law evolution of the scale factor is fast enough to solve the cosmological puzzles and slow enough to avoid the graceful exit problem. However, the constraints from...
متن کاملA remark on Brans - Dicke cosmological dust solutions with negative ω
Analysing the Brans-Dicke solutions for the dust phase, we show that, for negative values of ω, they contain scenarios that display an initial subluminal expansion followed by an inflationary phase. We discuss these solutions with respect to the results of the observation of high redshif supernova as well as the age problem and structure formation. We stablish possible connections of these solu...
متن کاملFluctuations of the gravitational constant in the inflationary Brans-Dicke cosmology.
According to the Brans–Dicke theory, the value of the gravitational constant G which we measure at present is determined by the value of the Brans–Dicke scalar field φ at the end of inflation. However, due to quantum fluctuations of the scalar fields produced during inflation, the gravitational constant G(φ) may take different values in different exponentially large parts of the Universe. We in...
