Abstract: We study the properties of possible static, spherically symmetric configurations in k-essence theories with the Lagrangian functions of the form $F(X)$, $Xequivph{i}_{,alpha}ph{i}^{,alpha}$. A no-go theorem has been proved, claiming that a possible black-hole-like Killing horizon of finite radius cannot exist if the function $F(X)$ is required to have a finite derivative $dF/dX$. Two exact solutions are obtained for special cases of k-essence: one for $F(X)=F_0{X}^{1/3}$, another for $F(X)=F_0|X{|}^{1/2}-2Lambda$, where $F_0$ and $Lambda$ are constants. Both solutions contain horizons, are not asymptotically flat, and provide illustrations for the obtained no-go theorem. The first solution may be interpreted as describing a black hole in an asymptotically singular space-time, while in the second solution two horizons of infinite area are connected by a wormhole.
