In the Brans-Dicke(BD) theory on $M_{4}\times Z_{2}$ geometry the geometrical meaning of the torsion is clarified. The BD theory on $M_{4}\times Z_{2}$ is rederived by taking into account of a new isometry condition.

Brans-Dicke (BD), one of the first proposed scalar-tensor theories of gravity, effectively makes the gravitational constant of general relativity (GR) time-dependent. Constraints on the BD parameter $\omega$ serve as a benchmark for testing…

The pure Brans-Dicke (BD) gravity with or without the cosmological constant $\Lambda $ has been taken as a model theory for the dark matter. Indeed, there has been a consensus that unless one modifies either the standard theory of gravity,…
