Anisotropic Bianchi type-II cosmological models in self-creation cosmology

Abstract

Totally anisotropic Bianchi type-II cosmological solutions are presented in Barber's second self-creation theory of gravitation both in vacuum and in the presence of stiff-matter. The corresponding cosmological models have no finite singularity. The stiff-matter model gives essentially an empty universe for large time. Some physical and kinematical properties of the models are discussed.
