A generalized scalar-tensor theory is investigated whose cosmological term
depends on both a scalar field and its time derivative. A correspondence with
solutions of five-dimensional Space-Time-Matter theory is noted. Analytic
solutions are found for the scale factor, scalar field and cosmological term.
Models with free parameters of order unity are consistent with recent
observational data and could be relevant to both the dark-matter and
cosmological-"constant" problems.Comment: 13 page
