Abstract:
Lagrangians of the field-theory model of a scalar field are considered as 4-forms on a Riemannian manifold.
The model is constructed on the basis of the Hodge inner product, this latter being an analog of the scalar
product of two functions. Including the basis fields in the action of the terms with tetrads makes it possible to
reproduce the Klein–Gordon equation and the Maxwell equations, and also the Einstein–Hilbert action. We
conjecture that the principle of construction of the Lagrangians as 4-forms can give a criterion restricting
possible forms of the field-theory models.
