Plane symmetric solutions of a scalar-tensor theory proposed by Dunn have been obtained. These solutions are observed to be similar to the plane symmetric solutions of the field equations corresponding to zero mass scalar fields obtained by Patel. It is found that the empty space-times of general relativity discussed by Taub and by Bera are obtained as special cases.

We investigate in this paper the Landau–Lifshitz energy distribution in the framework of [Formula: see text] theory view as a modified version of Teleparallel theory. From some important Teleparallel theory results on the localization of energy, our investigations generalize the Landau–Lifshitz prescription from the computation of the energy–momentum complex to the framework of [Formula: see text] gravity as it is done in the modified versions of General Relativity. We compute the energy density in the first step for three plane-symmetric metrics in vacuum. We find for the second metric that the energy density vanishes independently of [Formula: see text] models. We find that the Teleparallel Landau–Lifshitz energy–momentum complex formulations for these metrics are different from those obtained in General Relativity for the same metrics. Second, the calculations are performed for the cosmic string spacetime metric. It results that the energy distribution depends on the mass [Formula: see text] and the radius [Formula: see text] of cosmic string and it is strongly affected by the parameter of the considered quadratic and cubic [Formula: see text] models. Our investigation with this metric induces interesting results susceptible to be tested with some astrophysics hypothesis.

In this paper, we obtain a homothetic vector field of a plane symmetric Bianchi type-I spacetime based on Lyra geometry. We discuss the cases when the displacement vector is function of t and when it is constant. We investigate the equation of state in both two cases. A comparison between the obtained results, using Lyra geometry, and that have obtained previously in the context of General Relativity (GR), based on Riemannian geometry, will be given.

In this paper, we have investigated an anisotropic homogeneous plane symmetric cosmological micro-model in the presence of massless scalar field in modified theory of Einstein's general relativity. Some interesting physical and geometrical aspects of the model together with singularity in the model are discussed. Further, it is shown that this theory is valid and leads to Ein?stein's theory as the coupling parameter ? ?>? 0 in micro (i.e. quantum) level in general.
