Description
Summary:We present a novel approach for the construction of interior solutions for the Kerr metric, extending J. Ovalle’s foundational work through ellipsoidal coordinate transformations. By deriving a physically plausible interior solution that smoothly matches the Kerr exterior metric, we analyze the energy conditions across various rotation parameters. Our findings reveal anisotropic fluid properties and energy condition behaviors in specific space-time regions, providing insights into the strong-field regime of rotating black holes. The proposed solution offers a more realistic description of rotating black hole interiors, with implications for understanding compact astrophysical objects.
