Anisotropic fluid solution in f (Q) gravity satisfying vanishing complexity factor

Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a study on a spherically symmetric anisotropic solution in f(Q) gravity in the framework of vanishing complexity formalism, which derives a relation between gravitational potentials. The Durgapal-Fuloria metric is used to solve the system of equations derived under the linear functional form of f(Q) = β 1 Q + β 2, while the constants are evaluated by joining the interior solution to the Schwarzschild (Anti-) di Sitter exterior solution at the boundary. This study also examines the physical viability and dynamical stability of the solution for the compact star in f(Q)-gravity theory, which shows that the solution found in this study is well-behaved.
