Black String in dRGT Massive Gravity

Abstract: We present a cylindrically symmetric solution, both charged and uncharged, which is known as a black string solution to the nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity found by de Rham, Gabadadze, and Tolley (dRGT). This "dRGT black string" can be thought of as a generalization of the black string solution found by Lemos \cite{1}. Moreover, the dRGT black string solution also include other classes of black string solution such as the monopole-black string ones since the graviton mass contributes to the global monopole term as well as the cosmological constant term. To investigate the solution, we compute mass, temperature, and entropy of the dRGT black string. We found that the existence of the graviton mass drastically affects the thermodynamics of the black string. Furthermore, the Hawking-Page phase transition is found to be possible for the dRGT black string as well as the charged dRGT black string. In terms of their stability, the dRGT black string solution is thermodynamically stable for $r>r_c$ with negative thermodynamical potential and positive heat capacity while it is unstable for $r<r_c$ where the potential is positive.
