We discuss the cosmological implications of an extended Brans-Dicke theory presented recently, in which there is an energy exchange between the scalar field and ordinary matter, determined by the theory. A new mass scale is generated in the…

A theory of evolution for the Universe requires both a mutation mechanism and a selection mechanism. We propose that both can be encountered in the stochastic approach to quantum cosmology. In Brans--Dicke chaotic inflation, the quantum…

A static Friedmann brane in a 5-dimensional bulk (Randall-Sundrum type scenario) can have a very different relation between the density, pressure, curvature and cosmological constant than in the case of the general relativistic Einstein…

We discuss various analytical approximation methods for the evolution of the density fluctuation in the Universe. From primordial density fluctuation, the large-scale structure is formed via its own self-gravitational instability. For this…

We consider five dimensional conformal gravity theory which describes an anisotropic extra dimension. Reducing the theory to four dimensions yields Brans-Dicke theory with a potential and a hidden parameter $z$ which implements the…

A numerical integration is made, starting with a Kantowski-Sachs (KS) model with an added initial perturbation at time one-tenth the age of the universe, and evolving up to the present. According to a prediction by Barrow (1989), the ratio…

A classical dynamical system in a four-dimensional Euclidean space with universal time is considered. The space is hypothesized to be originally occupied by a uniform substance, pictured as a liquid, which at some time became supercooled.…

In this note we discuss a toy model in which the value of the effective cosmological constant is associated with a symmetry properties of the vacuum background solution and defined by the model parameter associated with a scalar field…

This paper has two parts, for a specific multiverse, and for the origin of our universe as it resulted from that multiverse. The first is based on the Planck domain and a Chandrasekhar equation that have quantum, relativity, gravity, and…

We investigate the integrability of cosmic strings in Bianchi III space-time in presence of a bulk viscous fluid by applying a new technique. The behaviour of the model is reduced to the solution of a single second order nonlinear…

In this paper, we consider a high-curvature limit of the varying fundamental constants toy model in which both the value of the speed of light and the value of the gravitational constant are related to the values of the two non-minimally…

Using the Brans-Dicke theory of gravitation we put under investigation a hypothetical universe filled with a fermionic field (with a self interaction potential) and a matter constituent ruled by a barotropic equation of state. It is shown…

We consider two-dimensional Brans-Dicke theory to study the initial singularity problem. It turns out that the initial curvature singularity can be finite for a certain Brans-Dicke constant $\omega$ by considering the quantum back reaction…

In this article we have presented FRW cosmological model in the framework of Brans-Dicke theory. This paper deals with a new proposed form of deceleration parameter and cosmological constant. The effect of bulk viscosity is also studied in…

We consider Brans-Dicke theory with a self-interacting potential in Einstein conformal frame. We show that an accelerating expansion is possible in a spatially flat universe for large values of the Brans-Dicke parameter consistent with…

The late universe's matter distribution obeys the Copernican principle at only the coarsest of scales. The relative importance of such inhomogeneity is still not well understood. Because of the Einstein field equations' non-linear nature,…

The Brans-Dicke Theory of Gravity is one of the most promising alternatives to the Einstein's Theory of General Relativity. We have examined an action term with wrong signs for both the kinetic and mass terms for the scalar field and have…

Suppose the usual description of spacetime as a 4-dimensional manifold with a Lorentzian metric breaks down at Planck energies. Can we still construct sensible theoretical models of the universe? Are they testable? Do they lead to a…

The quest to understand better the nature of the initial cosmological singularity is with us since the discovery of the expanding universe. Here, we propose several non-flat models, among them the standard cosmological scenario with a…

In this work, we have studied the Brans-Dicke (BD) cosmology in anisotropic models. We present three dimensional dynamical system describing the evolution of anisotropic models containing perfect fluid and BD scalar field with…
