What is Scalar Field Coupling in General Relativity about?

1) The scalar field is usually coupled to general relativity by including its energy-momentum tensor in the Einstein field equations. The energy-momentum tensor for a scalar field φ with potential V(φ) is given by T(φ)μν. 2) An action principle for a scalar field φ that yields this energy-momentum tensor is presented. The scalar field action is written as an integral of √-g times half the metric times the derivatives of φ plus the potential V(φ). 3) An alternative scalar field action is presented using
