Abstract
The gauge theory on geometry is applied to the Brans-Dicke(BD) theory, where is the four dimensional space-time and is a discrete space with two points. This approach had been previously proposed by Konisi and Saito without recourse to noncommutative geometry(NCG). Since our approach is geometrically simpler and clearer than NCG, one can see more directly the effect of the space in obtaining the BD theory.
