Abstract

In this work, we derive exact solutions for four-dimensional static spherically symmetric black holes and three-dimensional rotating black holes within a Lorentz-violating gravity theory. In this framework, Lorentz symmetry is spontaneously broken when a nonminimally coupled Kalb-Ramond tensor field acquires a nonzero vacuum expectation value. Building upon these solutions, we investigate the thermodynamic properties of the black holes using the Iyer-Wald formalism. Our findings reveal that the standard first law of thermodynamics and the Smarr relation remain valid for black holes in the presence of the Kalb-Ramond field.
