Scalar field theory

For a φ4 interaction, Michael Aizenman proved that the theory is indeed trivial for space-time dimension D\ge 5.

Scalar theories of gravitation

Scalar theories of gravitation are field theories of gravitation in which the gravitational field is described using a scalar field, which is required to satisfy some field equation.

Scalar-tensor theory

In theoretical physics, a scalar-tensor theory is a theory that includes both a scalar field and a tensor field to represent a certain interaction.
