Charged Throats in the Hořava--Lifshitz Theory

A spherically symmetric solution of the field equations of the Hořava--Lifshitz gravity--gauge vector interaction theory is obtained and analyzed. It describes a charged throat. The solution exists provided a restriction on the relation between the mass and charge is satisfied. The restriction reduces to the Reissner--Nordström one in the limit in which the coupling constants tend to the relativistic values of General Relativity. We introduce the correct charts to describe the solution across the entire manifold, including the throat connecting an asymptotic Minkowski space--time with a singular 3+1 dimensional manifold. The solution external to the throat on the asymptotically flat side tends to the Reissner--Nordström space--time at the limit when the coupling parameter, associated with the term in the low energy Hamiltonian that manifestly breaks the relativistic symmetry, tends to zero. Also, when the electric charge is taken to be zero the solution becomes the spherically symmetric and static solution of the Hořava--Lifshitz gravity.
