Abstract

Hamilton-Jacobi equation for Brans-Dicke theory is solved by using a long-wavelength approximation. We examine the non-linear evolution of the inhomogeneities in the dust fluid case and the cosmological constant case. In the case of dust fluid, it turns out that the inhomogeneities of space-time grow. In the case of cosmological constant, the inhomogeneities decay, which is consistent with the cosmic no hair conjecture. The inhomogeneities of the density perturbation and the gravitational constant behave similarly with that of space-time.
