The gauge theory on $M_4\times Z_2$ geometry is applied to the Brans-Dicke(BD) theory, where $M_4$ is the four dimensional space-time and $Z_2$ is a discrete space with two points. This approach had been previously proposed by Konisi and…
The theory on M_4 x Z_2 geometry is applied to the Einstein gravity to yield the Brans-Dicke theory on M_4 geometry. The geometrical meaning and the relation between the curvatures and the torsions are clarified. The cosmological constant…
We consider an approach to Brans-Dicke theory of gravity in which the scalar field has a geometrical nature. By postulating the Palatini variation, we find out that the role played by the scalar field consists in turning the space-time…
Memory effects are studied in the simplest scalar-tensor theory, the Brans--Dicke (BD) theory. To this end, we introduce, in BD theory, novel Kundt spacetimes (without and with gyratonic terms), which serve as backgrounds for the ensuing…
It is shown that a Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor gravitational theory, which also includes Bekenstein's kind of interaction between the Maxwell and scalar fields, has a particular kind of solutions with highly enhanced gravitational effects as…
The variational field equations of Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor theory of gravitation are given in a non-Riemannian setting in the language of exterior differential forms over 4-dimensional spacetimes. A conformally re-scaled Robinson-Trautman…
The effective four-dimensional, linearised gravity for a brane world model with higher order curvature terms and a bulk scalar field is analysed. Large and small distance gravitational laws are derived. The model has a single brane embedded…
We argue that the geodesic hypothesis based on the autoparalllels of the Levi-Civita connection may need refinement in the scalar- tensor theories of gravity. Based on a reformulation of the Brans- Dicke theory in terms of a connection with…
We present the new interpretation of scalar field for the Brans-Dicke theory. This interpretation is obtained by considering a fixed spacetime structure of manifold.
We derive the low-energy effective action of four-dimensional gravity in the Randall-Sundrum scenario in which two 3-branes of opposite tension reside in a five-dimensional spacetime. The dimensional reduction with the Ansatz for the radion…
We argue that the geodesic hypothesis based on auto-parallels of the Levi-Civita connection may need refinement in theories of gravity with additional scalar fields. This argument is illustrated with a re-formulation of the Brans-Dicke…
In this paper, we study the geodesic deviation equation (GDE) within the context of the Brans-Dicke (BD) theory in $D$ dimensions. Then, we restrict our attention to the GDE for the fundamental observers and null vector field past directed.…
The Brans-Dicke (BD) theory is the simplest Scalar-Tensor theory of gravity, which can be considered as a candidate of modified Einstein's theory of general relativity. In this work, we forecast the constraints on BD theory in the CSST…
The Brans-Dicke (BD) theory of gravity is taken as a possible theory of k-essence coupled to gravity. It then has been realized that the BD scalar field does indeed play a role of a k-essence, but in a very unique way which distinguishes it…
A specific choice of gauge is shown to imply a decoupling between the tensor and scalar components of Gravitational Radiation in the context of Brans-Dicke type theories of gravitation. The comparison of the predictions of these theories…
The modification to four--dimensional Einstein gravity at low energy in two brane models is investigated within supergravity in singular spaces. Using perturbation theory around a static BPS background, we study the effective…
We point out that extended gravity theories, the Lagrangian of which is an arbitrary function of scalar curvature $R$, are equivalent to a class of the scalar tensor theories of gravity. The corresponding gravity theory is $\omega=0$…
Four dimensional gravity in the low energy limit of a higher dimensional theory has been expected to be a (generalized) Brans-Dicke theory. A subtle point in brane world scenarios is that the system of four dimensional effective…
A theory of gravity with torsion is examined in which the torsion tensor is constructed from the exterior derivative of an antisymmetric rank two potential plus the dual of the gradient of a scalar field. Field equations for the theory are…
Linearized equations of motion for gravitational and scalar fields are found and solved in a stabilized brane world model in five-dimensional Brans-Dicke theory. The physical degrees of freedom are isolated, the mass spectrum of…
