Abstract

Cosmological consequences of the Poincare-Weyl gauge theory of gravity are considered. A generalized cosmological constant depending from the Dirac scalar field is introduced. The stage of a super-early (Harrison-Zel'dovich) scale invariant Universe is considered. It is shown that while the scale factor sharply increases and demonstrates inflationary behavior, the generalized cosmological constant decreases sharply from a huge value at the beginning of the Big Bang to an extremely small value in the modern era, which solves the well-known "cosmological constant problem".
