Higher-derivative deformations of the ModMax theory

Abstract

A bstract We present higher-derivative deformations of the ModMax theory which preserve both U(1) duality symmetry and Weyl invariance. In particular, we single out a class of deformations expected to describe a low-energy effective action for the ModMax theory. We also elaborate on (higher-derivative) deformations of the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>N</mml:mi> </mml:math> = 1 super ModMax theory.
