Contribution
It introduces new abelian and non-abelian generalizations of Born-Infeld theory and analyzes soliton configurations within these frameworks.
Findings
Classical Born-Infeld electrodynamics properties discussed
Generalizations to abelian and non-abelian cases analyzed
Soliton-like configurations obtained and related to Standard Model
Abstract
Classical version of Born-Infeld electrodynamics is recalled and its most important properties discussed. Then we analyze possible abelian and non-abelian generalizations of this theory, and show how certain soliton-like configurations can be obtained. The relationship with the Standard Model of electroweak interactions is also mentioned.
