Properties of the population of millisecond extragalactic radio bursts discovered by Thornton et al. (2013) are in good correspondence with the hypothesis that such events are related to hyperflares of magnetars, as was proposed by us after the first observation of an extragalactic millisecond radio burst by Lorimer et al. (2007). We also point that some of multiple millisecond radio bursts from M31 discovered by Rubio-Herrera et al. (2013) also can be related to weaker magnetar bursts.

Periodic Fast Radio Bursts from Young Neutron Stars
Repeating FRBs may be supergiant pulses from young, quickly spinning neutron stars; such sources would show periodic bursts that lengthen and fade over time.
-
Blast Waves from Magnetar Flares and Fast Radio Bursts
Magnetar flare blast waves in a cold magnetized wind can generate fast radio bursts through a shock maser, with polarization, frequency drift, and optical flash predictions.

Fast Radio Bursts produced during collapse of macroscopic X-mode in magnetized pair plasma
Nonlinear collapse of X-modes in magnetized pair plasma near current starvation produces short bright EM pulses identified as Fast Radio Bursts.

Frequency drifts in FRBs due to radius-to-frequency mapping in magnetospheres of neutron stars
The drift rate of repeating FRBs implies an emission region size of a few times 10^8 cm, consistent with neutron star magnetospheres, under the radius-to-frequency mapping hypothesis.
