AbstractSpatially homogeneous cosmological models of the Bianchi type-V are considered in the Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor theory of gravitation. Exact solutions are given in the vacuum case as well as for models filled with dust, radiation or stiff matter.

The spatially homogeneous and anisotropic LRS Bianchi type-V Universe filled with variable modified Chaplygin gas in the framework of the Brans–Dicke (Brans and Dicke. Phys. Rev. 124, 925 (1961). doi:10.1103/PhysRev.124.925) scalar–tensor theory of gravitation has been studied. To obtain a determinate solution of the field equations we have used the condition that scalar field ([Formula: see text]) is a function of average scale factor. Some physical and kinematical properties of the model are discussed. We have also analyzed the stability of the solution.

Bianchi types II, VIII, and IX string cosmological models are obtained and presented in a scalar-tensor theory of gravitation proposed by Brans and Dicke (1961) for λ+ρ=0. We also established the existence of only Bianchi type IX vacuum cosmological model for λ=ρ, where λ and ρ are tension density and energy density of strings, respectively. Some physical and geometrical features of the models are also discussed.

Amongst the various modifications of the general theory of relativity (GRT), the scalar-tensor theory of Brans and Dicke (BDT) is treated most seriously ([2], [17], [13]). The BDT is consistent with observations as long as the coupling parameter ω between the scalar and tensor components of gravitation is about equal to or greater than 500 [18]. However, there are no a priori theoretical reasons for excluding other values of ω. In the limit ω → ∞, the BDT reduces to the GRT for a constant BDT-scalar field Φ
