Scalar field Brans-Dicke universe in Lyra's manifold

2019 
In this paper, we investigate a scalar field Brans-Dicke cosmological model in Lyra's manifold which is basically based both the modifications in terms of geometry as well as energy terms of original Einstein's field equations. We have examined the validity of proposed cosmological model on observational scale by performing statistical test from H(z), SN Ia and joint H(z) \& BAO data sets. We find that estimated values of Hubble's constant and energy density parameters nicely match with their corresponding values, obtained by recent observations of WMAP and Plank collaboration. We also derived deceleration parameter, age of universe and jerk parameter in terms of red-shift and computed it's present values. The dynamics of deceleration parameter in derived universe clearly shows a signature flipping from positive to negative value and the present universe is in accelerating phase.
