We study the nonrelativistic limit of the quantum theory of a real scalar field with quartic self-interaction. The two-body scattering amplitude is written in such way as to separate the contributions of high and low energy intermediary states. From this result and the two-loop computation of the self-energy correction, we determine an effective nonrelativistic action.

The spectra of relic gravitational waves produced as a result of cosmological expansion of the inflationary models are derived in Brans–Dicke (BD) theory of gravity. The time dependence of the very early Hubble parameter and matter energy density are derived from frequency-dependent spectrum of relic gravitational waves. Also it is found that Brans–Dicke scalar field contributes to the energy density of relic gravitons.

Static (not stationary) solutions of the Einstein–Klein–Gordon (EKG) equations including matter are obtained for real scalar fields. The scalar field interaction with matter is considered. The introduced coupling allows the existence of static solutions in contraposition with the case of the simpler EKG equations for real scalar fields and gravity. Surprisingly, when the considered matter is a photon-like gas, it turns out that the gravitational field intensity at large radial distances becomes nearly a constant, exerting an approximately fixed force to small bodies at any distance. The effect is clearly related with the massless character of the photon-like field. It is also argued that the gravitational field can generate a bounding attraction, that could avoid the unlimited increase in mass with the radius of the obtained here solution. This phenomenon, if verified, may furnish a possible mechanism for explaining how the increasing gravitational potential associated to dark matter, finally decays at large distances from the galaxies. A method for evaluating these photon bounding effects is just formulated in order to be further investigated.

We present a reconstruction technique for models of [Formula: see text] gravity from the Chaplygin scalar field in flat de Sitter spacetimes. Exploiting the equivalence between [Formula: see text] gravity and scalar–tensor (ST) theories, and treating the Chaplygin gas (CG) as a scalar field model in a universe without conventional matter forms, the Lagrangian densities for the [Formula: see text] action are derived. Exact [Formula: see text] models and corresponding scalar field potentials are obtained for asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes in early and late cosmological expansion histories. It is shown that the reconstructed [Formula: see text] models all have General Relativity (GR) as a limiting solution.

Global existence of solutions is proved and asymptotic behavior is investigated, in the case of a positive cosmological constant and positive initial velocity of the cosmological expansion factor.
