An oscillating, homogeneous and isotropic Universe from Scalar-Tensor gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
An oscillating, homogeneous and isotropic Universe which arises from Scalar-Tensor gravity is discussed in the linearized approach, showing that some observative evidences like the Hubble Law and the Cosmological Redshift are in agreement with the model. In this context Dark Energy appears like a pure curvature effect arising by the scalar field. PACS numbers: 04.80.Nn, 04.30.Nk, 04.50.+h

According to the perturbation order, the equations of motion of low-energy string effective action are the generalized Einstein equations. Thus, by making use of the conformal transformation of the metric tensor, it is possible to map the low-energy string effective action into f(T) gravity, relating the dilaton field to the torsion scalar. Considering a homogeneous and isotropic universe and ...
متن کاملThe Averaging Problem in Cosmology and Macroscopic Gravity
The averaging problem in cosmology and the approach of macroscopic gravity to resolve the problem is discussed. The averaged Einstein equations of macroscopic gravity are modified on cosmological scales by the macroscopic gravitational correlation tensor terms as compared with the Einstein equations of general relativity. This correlation tensor satisfies a system of structure and field equatio...

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...
متن کاملul 2 00 4 de Sitter attractors in generalized gravity Valerio Faraoni
We obtain conditions for the existence and stability of de Sitter attractors in the phase space of homogeneous and isotropic cosmology in generalized theories of gravity (including non-linear and scalar-tensor theories). These conditions are valid for any form of the coupling functions of the theory. Stability with respect to inhomogeneous perturbations is analyzed using a covariant and gauge-i...
متن کاملConformal mappings preserving the Einstein tensor of Weyl manifolds
In this paper, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a conformal mapping between two Weyl manifolds to preserve Einstein tensor. Then we prove that some basic curvature tensors of $W_n$ are preserved by such a conformal mapping if and only if the covector field of the mapping is locally a gradient. Also, we obtained the relation between the scalar curvatures of the Weyl manifolds r...
