Abstract

Spherically symmetric static solutions of the Einstein equations with a positive cosmological constant for the energy-momentum tensor of a barotropic perfect fluid are governed by the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff-de Sitter equation. Existence and regularity at the vacuum boundary of the solutions with finite radii are investigated. The interior metric of the solution is connected with the Schwarzschild-de Sitter metric on the vacuum region.
