Hamilton-Jacobi equation for Brans-Dicke theory is solved by using along-wavelength approximation. We examine the non-linear evolution of theinhomogeneities in the dust fluid case and the cosmological constant case. Inthe case of dust fluid, it turns out that the inhomogeneities of space-timegrow. In the case of cosmological constant, the inhomogeneities decay, which isconsistent with the cosmic no hair conjecture. The inhomogeneities of thedensity perturbation and the gravitational constant behave similarly with thatof space-time.Comment: 17pages,standard late
