The k=1 case is the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. The k=2 case yields a family of self-gravitating Yang monopoles. The asymptotic spacetime is Minkowski for Lambda=0 and anti-de Sitter for Lambda<0, but the total energy is infinite for k>1. In all cases, there is an event horizon when m>m\_c, for some critical mass \$m\_c\$, which is negative for k>1. The horizon is degenerate when m=m\_c, and the near-horizon solution is then an adS\_2 x S^2k vacuum.
