Geometrical aspects of light propagation in nonlinear electrodynamics
read the original abstract
We analyze the propagation of light in the context of nonlinear electrodynamics, as it occurs in modified QED vacua. We show that the corresponding characteristic equation can be described in terms of a modification of the effective geometry of the underlying spacetime structure. We present the general form for this effective geometry and exhibit some new consequences that result from such approach.

Constitutive Origin of Hamiltonian Degeneracy in Nonlinear Electrodynamics with Spontaneous Lorentz Symmetry Breaking
The degeneracy of the constraint structure at nontrivial magnetic vacua follows from the constitutive origin of the effective Hamiltonian as complementary energy at fixed D.

On regular black strings spacetimes in nonlinear electrodynamics
No regular purely electric black strings exist in NED recovering the Maxwell limit, but regular cylindrical Bardeen and Hayward analogues are constructed with finite curvature.

Born-Infeld Electrogravity and Dyonic Black Holes
Born-Infeld electrogravity yields a fundamental extremal dyonic black hole in the small-charge limit whose mass and horizon area depend only on the Born-Infeld constant, Newton’s constant, and the speed of light.

Nonlinear electrodynamics in magnetars: systematic effects on radius constraints and timing analysis
NLED alters photon propagation near magnetars, producing ~10% errors in inferred radii via ray-tracing and a minimal ~350 ns travel-time delay.

Effective null geodesics and black hole images in Kruglov nonlinear electrodynamics
In Kruglov's Born-Infeld-type nonlinear electrodynamics, the effective photon geometry around a charged black hole produces q-dependent shifts in light deflection, shadow radius, and accretion disk images, including s...

Effective null geodesics and black hole images in Kruglov nonlinear electrodynamics
In Kruglov nonlinear electrodynamics, small positive values of the parameter q produce stable photon orbits outside the event horizon and modify black hole shadows and relativistic images even when the spacetime metri...

Properties of black holes in non-linear electrodynamics
Analytic charged black holes in nonlinear electrodynamics with non-monotonic lapse functions support stable light rings and additional longer-lived quasinormal modes compared to Einstein gravity.

Properties of black holes in non-linear electrodynamics
Nonlinear electrodynamics black holes with non-monotonic lapse functions admit stable light rings and trapped near-horizon photon orbits that generate additional longer-lived quasinormal mode branches.
