A nearly cylindrically symmetric source in the Brans-Dicke gravity as the generator of the rotational curves of the galaxies

S. Mittmann dos Santos, J. M. Hoff da Silva, M. E. X. Guimarães +1

Observation shows that the velocities of stars grow by approximately 2 to 3 orders of magnitude when the distances from the centers of the galaxies are in the range of kpc to…

Positive tension 3-branes in an bulk

M. C. B. Abdalla, M. E. X. Guimaraes, J. M. Hoff da Silva

In this work, we review and extend the so-called consistency conditions for the existence of a braneworld scenario in arbitrary dimensions in the Brans-Dicke (BD) gravitational the…

Brane-Wor(l)ds within Brans-Dicke Gravity

M. C. B. Abdalla, M. E. X. Guimaraes, J. M. Hoff da Silva

We review some recent results obtained from the application of the Gauss-Codazzi formalism to brane-worlds models in the Brans-Dicke gravity. The cases of 4-branes embedded in a si…

On the Consistence Conditions to Braneworlds Sum Rules in Scalar-Tensor Gravity for Arbitrary Dimensions

M. C. B. Abdalla, M. E. X. Guimaraes, J. M. Hoff da Silva

We derive an one-parameter family of consistence conditions to braneworlds in the Brans-Dicke gravity. The sum rules are constructed in a completely general frame and they reproduc…

Non- symmetric braneworlds in scalar tensorial gravity

M. C. B. Abdalla, M. E. X. Guimaraes, J. M. Hoff da Silva

We obtain, via the Gauss-Codazzi formalism, the expression of the effective Einstein-Brans-Dicke projected equations in a non- symmetric braneworld scenario which p…

Gauss-Codazzi Formalism to Braneworld Scenario within Brans-Dicke Theory

M. C. B. Abdalla, M. E. X. Guimaraes, J. M. Hoff da Silva

We apply the Gauss-Codacci formalism to brane worlds scenario within the framework of Brans-Dicke gravity. The compactification is taken from six to five dimensions in order to for…
