Description

I will briefly review an idea spurring from Lee, Stephon and Joao for an action with a varying cosmological constant and at most only three new free parameters, based on a `quasi-topological principle', and show how one can determine its number of degrees of freedom at the non-perturbative level, and some of the interesting features that arise in the analysis.
