【 摘 要 】

We investigate the connection between Gravity’s Rainbow and Hořava–Lifshitz gravity, since both theories incorporate a modification in the ultraviolet regime which improves their quantum behavior at the cost of the Lorentz invariance loss. In particular, extracting the Wheeler–De Witt equations of the two theories in the case of Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker and spherically symmetric geometries, we establish a correspondence that bridges them.
