Abstract
We develop a systematic framework for formulating and solving the conditions that lead to separability in stationary, axisymmetric spacetimes in the presence of matter fields. Guided by Carter's metric form, we introduce a general stationary, axisymmetric metric ansatz that allows for a transparent separation of radial and angular variables. This construction yields a broad family of stationary rotating solutions admitting separability structures. To illustrate the applicability of the formalism, we explicitly construct several examples, including a rotating black hole with a global monopole supported by anisotropic matter, as well as a new class of rotating wormhole geometries.
