We revisit the U(1) duality-invariant nonlinear models for N=1 and N=2 vector multiplets coupled to off-shell supergravities. For such theories we develop new formulations which make use of auxiliary chiral superfields (spinor in the N=1 case and scalar for N=2) and are characterized by the remarkable property that U(1) duality invariance is equivalent to the manifest U(1) invariance of the self-interaction. Our construction is inspired by the non-supersymmetric approach that was proposed by Ivanov and Zupnik a decade ago and recently re-discovered in the form of twisted self-duality.

  1. Causal self-dual nonlinear electrodynamics from the Born-Infeld theory

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Auxiliary-field construction from Born-Infeld seed yields causal self-dual nonlinear electrodynamics that generally solve the self-duality equations.

  2. Manifestly duality-invariant interactions in diverse dimensions

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For a gauge (2p-1)-form in d=4p dimensions, a U(1) duality-invariant theory is reformulated so that the self-interactions of an auxiliary tensor are manifestly U(1) invariant.

  3. Nonlinear self-duality for arbitrary spin, superspin, and supersymmetry type

    hep-th 2026-02 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Every U(1) duality-invariant (super)conformal gauge theory of arbitrary (super)spin obeys a universal self-duality equation, is Legendre self-dual, and (for spin > 1) lives only on conformally flat backgrounds.
