Abstract

In this paper we study the isotropisation of a Generalized Scalar-Tensor theory with a massive scalar field. We find it depends on a condition on the Brans-Dicke coupling function and the potential and show that asymptotically the metric functions always tend toward a power or exponential law of the proper time. These results generalise and unify these of De Sitter in the case of a cosmological constant and of Cooley and Kitada in the case of an exponential potential.
