Abstract
We find general non-linear Lagrangians invariant under the electric-magneti c duality. They are characterized by an arbitrary function and are reduced to the Maxwell theory in weak field limit. We present some explicit example s that include generalizations of the Born-Infeld theory. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
