The exact solution for a static spherically symmetric field outside a charged point particle is found in a non-linear $U(1)$ gauge theory with a logarithmic Lagrangian. The electromagnetic self-mass is finite, and for a particular relation between mass, charge, and the value of the non-linearity coupling constant, $\lambda$, the electromagnetic contribution to the Schwarzschild mass is equal to the total mass. If we also require that the singularity at the origin be hidden behind a horizon, the mass is fixed to be slightly less than the charge. This object is a {\em black point.}

  1. On regular black strings spacetimes in nonlinear electrodynamics

    gr-qc 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    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.

  2. Thermodynamics and phase transitions of charged-AdS black holes in dRGT massive gravity with nonlinear electrodynamics

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Charged AdS black holes in dRGT massive gravity with exponential NED exhibit van der Waals-like first-order, second-order critical, and reentrant phase transitions between small and large black holes at fixed Lambda.
