Description
Summary:We introduce a two-step procedure for finding Kerr-type rotating black hole solutions without tears. Considering the low-energy sector of Hořava gravity as a viable Lorentz-violating gravity in four dimensions which admits a different speed of gravity, we find the exact rotating black hole solutions (with or without cosmological constant). We find that the singular region extends to r < 0 region from the ring singularity at r = 0 in Boyer–Lindquist coordinates. There are two Killing horizons where g rr = 0 and the black hole thermodynamics laws are still valid. We find the rotating black hole solutions with electromagnetic charges only when we consider the noble electromagnetic couplings, in such a way that the speed of light is the same as the speed of gravity. With the noble choice of couplings, our Lorentz-violating gravity can be consistent with the recently-observed time delay of the coincident GW and GRB signals. Furthermore, in Appendices, we show that (a) the uniqueness of the invariant line element d s 2 under the foliation-preserving diffeomorphism Diff F , contrary to Lorentz-violating action, (b) the solutions are the Petrov type I with four distinct principal null vectors, and (c) the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for the geodesic particles are not separable.
