Abstract
The signal propagation in nonlinear electrodynamics when an arbitrary Einstein–Born–Infeld theory is invariant under duality rotations is discussed. The quasimetric defining the characteristic surfaces that depend on the structural function is obtained. The propagation of nonlinear photons is also briefly discussed.Keywords
