Abstract
This paper suggests a generalization of the Born--Infeld action (1932) for the case of electroweak and gravitational fields. Basic notions one deals with are Dirac matrices, , and dimensionless covariant derivatives, , given in spinorial and scalar representations. The action contains a characteristic length (which is of order of magnitude of Planck's length), as a parameter and possesses an extra symmetry with respect to transformations of the Lorentz group imposed on pairs (, ). It's shown that parameter of the Lorentz group is associated with a constant value of the electroweak potential at spatial infinity.
