Scientific paper

We extend the Wald cosmic no-hair theorem to a general class of scalar-tensor nonminimally coupled theories of gravity where ordinary matter is also present in the form of a perfect fluid. We give a set of conditions for obtaining a de Sitter expansion independently of any initial conditions, generalizing the treatment of such a problem as given by Wald. Finally we apply the results to some specific models.
