For one complex scalar in the fundamental representation, the most general power-counting-renormalizable gauge-invariant Lagrangian is
L=−41​Fμνa​Faμν+(Dμ​Φ)†DμΦ−V(Φ),V(Φ)=−μ2Φ†Φ+λ(Φ†Φ)2​,

apart from a constant and the four-dimensional Yang-Mills theta term. Stability requires λ>0. A cubic candidate ϵijk​Φi​Φj​Φk​ vanishes because the scalar components commute.
