Symmetric vacuum scalar--tensor cosmology | | James E. Lidsey
; | | Date: |
27 Mar 1996 | | Journal: | Class.Quant.Grav. 13 (1996) 2449-2456 | | Subject: | gr-qc | | Abstract: | The existence of point symmetries in the cosmological field equations of generalized vacuum scalar--tensor theories is considered within the context of the spatially homogeneous cosmologies. It is found that such symmetries only occur in the Brans--Dicke theory when the dilaton field self--interacts. Moreover, the interaction potential of the dilaton must take the form of a cosmological constant. For the spatially flat, isotropic model, it is shown how this point symmetry may be employed to generate a discrete scale factor duality in the Brans--Dicke action. | | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/9603052 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
