Abstract
We consider dark matter represented by the light scalar field whose coupling to the ordinary matter is extremely suppressed. We assume that this interaction can be described as the coupling of the square of the field to the energy-momentum tensor. We study the effect of this interaction on the evolution of dark matter scalar, as well as bounds on the model parameters that come from the variation of fundamental constants at the BBN.
