contents Spontaneous Lorentz violation models of antisymmetric tensor field are known to possess singular Hamiltonian on the vacuum manifold, leading to unresolvable pathologies that render such theories unfit for cosmological studies. In this work, we show that by introducing an auxiliary vector field inspired by the Stückelberg mechanism to restore the gauge symmetry of the Lagrangian, it is possible to resolve such pathologies on vacuum manifold. The constraint analysis using Dirac-Bergmann method leads to a constraint matrix that acquires dependence on gradients and conjugate momentum of the Stückelberg field and therefore remains non-singular on the vacuum manifold.
