Description
The only rigorous result known so far on the existence of isolated bodies
in GR in rigid rotation are the ones by Heilig of 1995 on perfect fluids. We outline a method to solve the
stationary Einstein equations with source a body in rigid rotation consisting of elastic matter.
This is work in progress by R.B., B.G.Schmidt, and L.Andersson.
