Exhibiting stable model of dark energy compact star with Tolman-VI solution under complexity free system by Hammad Nazar, Abdul Majeed, Ghulam Abbas, Asifa Ashraf, Phongpichit Channuie

“…The potential viability and credibility of the proposed dark star solutions were thoroughly analyzed by examining key constraints, including the regularity of metric functions, physical adequacy through matter variables, state parameter behavior, energy conditions, stability tests (such as pressure anisotropy and hydrostatic equilibrium), the speed of sound, and the mass–radius relation for this compact star candidate. Notably, the estimated values of the dark energy coupling factor, presented in Table 1, highlight the exotic nature of the fluid distribution and effectively quantify the contribution of dark energy to the structure and evolution of an ultra-relativistic dark compact star. …”
