A novel nonlinear electrodynamics (NLE) model with two dimensionful parameters is introduced and investigated. Our model obeys the Maxwellian limit and exhibits behaviour similar to the Born-Infeld Lagrangian in the weak field limit. It is shown that the electric field of a point charge in this model has a definite maximum value. Thus, the self-energy of the point charge is finite. The phenomenon of vacuum birefringence is found to occur in the presence of an external uniform electric field. Causality and unitarity conditions for all background electric fields hold, whereas, for magnetic fields, a restricted domain of validity is found. Moreover, a minimal coupling of Einstein's General Relativity (GR) with this NLE results in solutions of regular black holes or naked singularities, depending on whether the source is a nonlinear magnetic monopole or an electric charge, respectively.

Axiomatic quantum electrodynamics: from causality to convexity of effective action
Causality plus the Maxwell Dominance Principle force the Hessian of the nonlinear electromagnetic Lagrangian to be nonnegative, so the Lagrangian surface is convex.

Nonlinear Yang-Mills AdS black brane and DC conductivity
For a holographic model with fractional non-abelian gauge fields, the DC conductivity is σ = (1 - 4 q1 h'(rh)^2)/(1 + 4 q1 h'(rh)^2)^3, which is below the usual lower bound for nonzero coupling.
