Einstein-Brans-Dicke Cosmology

چکیده
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 the satisfactory bubble distribution (β > 0.25) and the solar system observations (β < 0.002) are mutually exclusive. This suggests that this kind of inflationary model is ruled out. We also clarify the distinction between Einstein frame and Jordan frame in Brans-Dicke theory. Email: [email protected]

Pauli (or Einstein) frame is used to study the Brans-Dicke gravity theory, minimally coupled with dilatonic Brans-Dicke scalar field, whose solutions involve degenerate metrics. Some of these solutions exhibit transitions from an Euclidean domain to a Lorentzian space-time corresponding to a spatially flat Robertson-Walker cosmology.
متن کاملHolographic Bound in Brans-Dicke Cosmology
We apply the holographic principle to the Brans-Dicke cosmology. We analyze the holographic bound in both the Jordan and Einstein frames. The holographic bound is satisfied for both the k = 0 and k = −1 universe, but it is violated for the k = 1 matter dominated universe. 04.50.+h, 98.80.Hw Typeset using REVTEX 1
متن کاملGauge-invariant Cosmological Perturbations in Generalized Einstein Theories
Using the covariant approach and conformal transformations, we present a gauge-invariant formalism for cosmological perturbations in generalized Einstein theories (GETs), including the Brans-Dicke theory, theories with a non-minimally coupled scalar field and certain curvature-squared theories. We find an enhancement in the growth rate of density perturbations in the Brans-Dicke theory, and dis...
متن کاملDicke frames in multidimensional cosmology
Inhomogeneous multidimensional cosmological models with a higher dimensional space-time manifold M = M 0 × n i=1 M i (n ≥ 1) are investigated under dimensional reduction to a D 0-dimensional effective non-minimally coupled σ-model which generalizes the familiar Brans-Dicke model. It is argued that the Einstein frame should be considered as the physical one. The general prescription for the Eins...
متن کاملPhases of Brans-Dicke Cosmology(II):Matter from NS-NS sector
We study the cosmology of the Brans-Dicke(BD) theory coupled to perfect fluid type matter. In our previous works, the case where matter is coming from the Ramond-Ramond sector of the string theory was studied. Here we study the case where matter is coming from NS-NS sector. Exact solutions are found and the cosmology is classified according to the values of γ,the parameter of the equation of st...
