A five dimensional brane cosmology with non-minimally coupled scalar field to gravity has been considered in a Jordan-Brans-Dicke frame. We derive an effective four dimensional field equations on a 3+1 dimensional brane where the fifth…
We study the metric perturbations in the context of restricted $f(R)$ gravity, in which a parameter for deviation from the full diffeomorphisms of space-time is introduced. We demonstrate that one can choose the parameter to remove the…
We consider a generalized Brans-Dicke model in which the scalar field has a potential function and is also allowed to couple non-minimally with the matter sector. This anomalous gravitational coupling can in principle avoid the model to…
It has been argued that a Universe governed by Eddington-Born-Infeld gravity can be compatible with current cosmological constraints. The extra fields introduced in this theory can behave both as dark matter and dark energy, unifying the…

We consider an extension of the Randall-Sundrum model with three parallel 3-branes in a 5-dimensional spacetime. This new construction, apart from providing a solution to the Planck hierarchy problem, has the advantage that the SM fields…
We study the cosmology of the Brans-Dicke theory with perfect fluid type matter. In our previous work, we found exact solutions for any Brans-Dicke parameter $\omega$ and for general parameter $\gamma$ of equation of state. In this paper we…
In the present study we search for a new class of wormhole solutions in the framework of Brans-Dicke (BD) theory in the presence of anisotropic matter distribution. Considering a linear equation of state (EoS) between radial pressure and…
In this paper first we study Brans-Dicke equations with the cosmological constant to find an exact solution in the spatially flat Robertson-Walker metric. Then we use Observational Hubble data, the baryon acoustic oscillation distance ratio…

We show that Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) geometry with flat spatial section in quantized (Wheeler deWitt quantization) Brans Dicke (BD) theory reveals a rich phase structure owing to anomalous breaking of a classical symmetry, which…
We reveal the non-metric geometry underlying omega-->0 Brans-Dicke theory by unifying the metric and scalar field into a single geometric structure. Taking this structure seriously as the geometry to which matter universally couples, we…
The present paper reports a study on the dimensionless parameter $\omega$ in Brans-Dicke theory. Based on a particular choice of scale factor $a$, we have investigated the signature flip of the deceleration parameter $q$ to see whether the…
We present a brief review of the modified Brans-Dicke theory (MBDT) in arbitrary dimensions, whereby the ($N+1$)-dimensional field equations reduce to the $N$-dimensional $(ND)$ configuration with sources and an effective induced scalar…
