Trirefringence and the M5-brane
Igor Bandos, Kurt Lechner, Dmitri Sorokin +1
The Hamiltonian formulation for nonlinear chiral 2-form electrodynamics in six-dimensional Minkowski spacetime is used to show that small-amplitude plane-wave perturbations of a ge…
Maximally symmetric nonlinear extension of electrodynamics and charged particles
Kurt Lechner, Pieralberto Marchetti, Andrea Sainaghi +1
We consider couplings of electrically and magnetically charged sources to the maximally symmetric non-linear extension of Maxwell's theory called ModMax. The aim is to reveal physi…
ModMax meets Susy
Igor Bandos, Kurt Lechner, Dmitri Sorokin +1
We give a prescription for N=1 supersymmetrization of any (four-dimensional) nonlinear electrodynamics theory with a Lagrangian density satisfying a convexity condition that we rel…
On p-form gauge theories and their conformal limits
Igor Bandos, Kurt Lechner, Dmitri Sorokin +1
Relations between the various formulations of nonlinear p-form electrodynamics with conformal-invariant weak-field and strong-field limits are clarified, with a focus on duality in…
A non-linear duality-invariant conformal extension of Maxwell's equations
Igor Bandos, Kurt Lechner, Dmitri Sorokin +1
All nonlinear extensions of the source-free Maxwell equations preserving both SO(2) electromagnetic duality invariance and conformal invariance are found, and shown to be limits of…
Self-interacting chiral p-forms in higher dimensions
Ginevra Buratti, Kurt Lechner, Luca Melotti
There exists no natural variational principle for the dynamics of abelian p-form potentials with self-dual field strengths, also called chiral p-forms. Relying on the PST method, w…
