Supersymmetric Duality Rotations
read the original abstract
We derive N = 1, 2 superfield equations as the conditions for a (nonlinear) theory of one abelian N = 1 or N = 2 vector multiplet to be duality invariant. The N = 1 super Born-Infeld action is a particular solution of the corresponding equation. A family of duality invariant nonlinear N = 1 supersymmetric theories is described. We present the solution of the N = 2 duality equation which reduces to the N = 1 Born-Infeld action when the (0,1/2) part of N = 2 vector multiplet is switched off. We also propose a constructive perturbative scheme to compute duality invariant N = 2 superconformal actions.

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...
