TL;DR: The general class of scalar-tensor theories is discussed in this paper in which the coupling parameter ω is not a constant but a function of the scalar field ϕ.
Abstract: The general class of scalar-tensor theories is discussed in which, in contrast to Brans-Dicke theory, the coupling parameter ω is not a constant but a function of the scalar field ϕ. Some other generalizations of the Brans-Dicke theory have also been discussed in brief. The physical aspects of these theories have been dealt. The cosmological models in scalar-tensor theories have been discussed in detail. Finally some open problems in these theories have been pointed out.

TL;DR: Two-dimensional quantum field theories invariant under the superconformal and super Kac-Moody transformations are constructed in this article, generalizing the construction of conformal field theories following Belavin-Polyakov-Zamolodchikov.
