An exact solution of straight spinning cosmic strings in Brans-Dicke theory of gravitation is presented. The possibility of the existence of closed time-like curves around these cosmic strings is analyzed. Furthermore, the ...

Several points regarding cylindrical Brans-Dicke geometries are studied. The issue of particle trajectories for the vacuum cylindrical solution is revisited. The possible particular nature of a global string metric is ...

We derive an one-parameter family of consistency conditions to braneworlds in the Brans-Dicke gravity. The General Relativity case is recovered by taking a correct limit of the Brans-Dicke parameter. We show that it is ...

We apply the Gauss-Codazzi formalism to brane-worlds within the framework of Brans-Dicke gravity. The compactification is taken from six to five dimensions in order to formalize brane-world models with hybrid compactification ...

We present an exact asymptotically Lifshitz black hole solution in Brans-Dicke theory of gravity in arbitrary n(≥ 3) dimensions in presence of a power-law potential. In this solution, the dynamical exponent z is determined ...

We derive the full projected Einstein-Brans-Dicke gravitational equations associated with an n-dimensional brane embedded in an (n + 1)-dimensional bulk. Using general conditions, as the positivity of the Brans-Dicke ...
