Implications of Rastall Theory on Stellar Solutions admitting Vanishing Complexity: A New Perspective
arXiv:2507.07425 · doi:10.1016/j.aop.2025.170035
Abstract
In this paper, the notion of complexity factor and its implication is extended to the framework of non-conserved Rastall theory of gravity. First of all, the field equations governing a static spherical geometry associated with the anisotropic fluid are formulated. The mass function corresponding to the considered geometry is defined in terms of both matter and geometric quantities. The orthogonal decomposition of the Riemann tensor is then performed through which a family of scalar quantities, known as structure scalars, is obtained. Using the Herrera's recent definition, one of the scalars among them is claimed as the complexity factor, \emph{i.e.}, . Since there are extra degrees of freedom in the gravitational equations, some constraints are needed to make their solution possible to obtain. In this regard, a well-known vanishing complexity condition is introduced along with three different constraints which ultimately lead to distinct stellar models. In order to check their physical feasibility, a detailed graphical interpretation is provided using multiple values of the Rastall parameter. It is concluded that the obtained results in all three cases are consistent with those of general relativity. Further, the Rastall theory provides more suitable results in the case of model 2, indicating its superiority over Einstein's gravity theory.
