Nonlinear Electromagnetic Self-Duality and Legendre Transformations
read the original abstract
We discuss continuous duality transformations and the properties of classical theories with invariant interactions between electromagnetic fields and matter. The case of scalar fields is treated in some detail. Special discrete elements of the continuous group are shown to be related to the Legendre transformation with respect to the field strengths.

Heat kernel approach to the one-loop effective action for nonlinear electrodynamics
A heat kernel technique is developed to compute the one-loop effective action for general nonlinear electrodynamics, yielding a0-a2 coefficients in the weak-field regime and all-order a0 for conformal cases with causa...

Black holes and causal nonlinear electrodynamics
Causal nonlinear electrodynamics forces a singular center and at most three phases for RN-asymptotic black holes, with monotonicity proofs showing reduced mass and entropy for extreme dyonic cases.
