Thermodynamics of BTZ-type charged black holes in Bopp Podolsky electrodynamics

Abstract

We tested the thermodynamic properties of charged BTZ-type black holes (BHs) in the framework of Bopp Podolsky electrodynamics, a higher derivative extension of Maxwells theory that preserves gauge invariance while introducing a massive photon mode. Using a perturbative approach, we derive first and second order corrections to the metric and electric field, revealing how the Bopp Podolsky parameter b modifies the geometry and horizon structure. Unlike in four dimensional illustrations, where such corrections can lead to wormhole solutions, the (2+1)dimensional case retains a black hole interpretation, albeit with curvature dependent deformations that vanish asymptotically. We compute the Hawking temperature via the Hamilton Jacobi tunneling method, demonstrating its dependence on both the cosmological constant and the Bopp Podolsky coupling. Our results indicate that while energy conditions are marginally violated for certain parameter regimes, the BHs thermodynamic behavior remains well-defined, with temperature corrections emerging from the interplay between higher derivative electrodynamics and the lower dimensional gravitational background.
