Newman-Janis Ansatz for rotating wormholes

Abstract

A central problem in General Relativity is obtaining a solution to describe the source's interior counterpart for Kerr black hole. Besides, determining a method to match the interior and exterior solutions through a surface free of predefined coordinates remains an open problem. In this work, we present the ansatz formulated by Newman-Janis to generate solutions to the Einstein field equation inspired by the mentioned problems. We present a collection of independent classes of exact interior solutions of the Einstein equation describing rotating fluids with anisotropic pressures. Furthermore, we will elaborate on some obtained solutions by alluding to rotating wormholes.
