Abstract

The solutions of the field equations of the conformal theory of gravitation with Dirac scalar field in Weyl-Cartan spacetime in very early universe are obtained. In this theory dark energy (describing by an effective cosmological constant) is a function of the Dirac scalar field β. These solutions describe the exponential decreasing of β at the first exponential stage of inflation. One of these solutions has a limit to a constant value of the dark energy at large time that can give a way to solving the fundamental cosmological constant problem as a consequence of the fields dynamics in the early universe.
