Abstract

We study the entropy of extremal warped black hole obtained from the topologically massive gravity with a negative cosmological constant of Λ=1/l2\Lambda=-1/l^2. We compare the entropy Se=πα/3GS_e=\pi \alpha/3G from the Wald formalism with Sw=πlu/3GS_w=\pi l u /3G from the entropy function approach. These are the same if α=lu\alpha=l u. Also we obtain the same Cardy formula when Je=l3qJ_e= l^3 q with JeJ_e the angular momentum and qq the conserved quantity.
