Introdução à gravitação de Brans-Dicke

The cosmological standard model needs a deep improvement when compared to recent observational data and also when contrasted with a broad theorical context. Al- ternative theories to General Relativity are possible candidates to reach the expectation Physics of Elementary Particles and Gravitation. Scalar-tensor theories seem to reappear from the ashes of the old work by Jordan corresponding appropriately low power limits of unifying theories. Being the Brans Dicke theory a scalar tensor is conducted a comprehensive study starting from its rst motivations to it s current one it is re flections

Saddle Point and Second Order Optimality in Nondifferentiable Nonlinear Abstract Multiobjective Optimization

This article deals with a vector optimization problem with cone constraints in a Banach space setting. By making use of a real-valued Lagrangian and the concept of generalized subconvex-like functions, weakly efficient solutions are characterized through saddle point type conditions. The results, jointly with the notion of generalized Hessian (introduced in [Cominetti, R., Correa, R.: A generalized second-order derivative in nonsmooth optimization. SIAM J. Control Optim. 28, 789–809 (1990)]), are applied to achieve second order necessary and sufficient optimality conditions (without requiring twice differentiability for the objective and constraining functions) for the particular case when the functionals involved are defined on a general Banach space into finite dimensional ones.

Método de integração em dimensão negativa em teoria quântica de campos

This work is a review of the Negative Dimension Integration Method as a powerful tool for the computation of the radiative corrections present in Quantum Field Perturbation Theory. This method is applicable in the context of Dimensional Regularization and it provides exact solutions for Feynman integrals with both dimensional parameter and propagator exponents generalized. These solutions are presentedintheformoflinearcombinationsofhypergeometricfunctionswhosedomains of convergence are related to the analytic structure of the Feynman Integral. Each solution is connected to the others trough analytic continuations. Besides presenting and discussing the general algorithm of the method in a detailed way, we offer concrete applications to scalar one-loop and two-loop integrals as well as to the one-loop renormalizationofQuantumElectrodynamics (QED)

Compactificação alternativa de dimensões extras em gravitação de Brans-Dicke

After a brief introduction of some gravitational aspects of the Randall-Sundrum braneworld model as well as of the Brans-Dicke (BD) gravity, we propose two braneworld models using the, local and global, cosmic strings in the BD framework in order to generate all the bulk/brane structure. The final scenario is composed, in both cases, of a warped 4-brane with topology 'R POT. 4' x 'S POT. 1' and one extra dimension transverse to the brane. After that, we analyze the founded models in the scope of the Gauss-Codazzi formalism, with and without the imposition of 'Z IND. 2' symmetry on the brane
