The vacuum, static, and spherically symmetric solutions in the mimetic Born-Infeld gravity are studied. The mimetic Born-Infeld gravity is a reformulation of the Eddington-inspired-Born-Infeld (EiBI) model under the mimetic approach. Due to the mimetic field, the theory contains non-trivial vacuum solutions different from those in Einstein gravity. We find that with the existence of the mimetic...

The topological classification of critical points black holes in 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity coupled to Born-Infeld theory is investigated. Considered independently, Born-infeld corrections the Einstein action alter charge charged AdS hole system, whereas Gauss-Bonnet do not. For combined system though, total unaltered presence coupling.

Two-dimensional Born-Infeld electrostatic fields behaving as the superposition of two pointlike charges in the linearized (Maxwellian) limit are investigated by means of a nonholomorphic mapping of the complex plane. The changes in the Coulombian interaction between two charges in Born-Infeld theory are computed. Remarkably, the force between equal charges goes to zero as they approach each other.

It is shown that the Born-Infeld-type modification of the quadratic Yang-Mills action gives rise to classical particlelike solutions prohibited in the standard Yang-Mills theory. This becomes possible due to breaking of the scale invariance by the Born-Infeld nonlinearity. New classical glueballs, which are of a sphaleronic nature, exhibit a striking similarity to the Bartnik-McKinnon solutions...

We develop a Born-Infeld type theory for gravity in any dimension. We show that in four dimensions our formalism allows a self-dual (or anti-self dual) Born-Infeld gravity description. Moreover, we show that such a self-dual action is reduced to both the Deser-Gibbons and the Jacobson-Smolin-Samuel action of Ashtekar formulation. A supersymmetric generalization of our approach is outlined. Key ...

Fluctuations around a non-trivial solution of Born-Infeld theory have a limiting speed given not by the Einstein metric but the Boillat metric. The Boillat metric is S-duality invariant and conformal to the open string metric. It also governs the propagation of scalars and spinors in Born-Infeld theory. We discuss the potential clash between causality determined by the closed string and open st...

We show that the recently introduced ModMax theory of electrodynamics and its Born-Infeld-like generalization are related by a flow equation driven quadratic combination stress-energy tensors. The operator associated to this is $4d$ analogue $T\bar{T}$ deformation in two dimensions. This result generalizes observation ordinary Born-Infeld Lagrangian free Maxwell current-squared flow. As case, w...
