Bianchi {VI}$_{0}$ in Scalar and Scalar-Tensor Cosmologies

We study several cosmological models with Bianchi \textrm{VI}$_{0}$ symmetries under the self-similar approach. In order to study how the \textquotedblleft constants\textquotedblright\ $G$ and $Λ$ may vary, we propose three scenarios where such constants are considered as time functions. The first model is a perfect fluid. We find that the behavior of $G$ and $Λ$ are related. If $G$ behaves as a growing time function then $Λ$ is a positive decreasing time function but if $G$ is decreasing then $Λ$ is negative. For this model we have found a new solution. The second model is a scalar field, where in a phenomenological way, we consider a modification of the Klein-Gordon equation in order to take into account the variation of $G$. Our third scenario is a scalar-tensor model. We find three solutions for this models where $G$ is growing, constant or decreasing and $Λ$ is a positive decreasing function or vanishes. We put special emphasis on calculating the curvature invariants in order to see if the solutions isotropize.
