Abstract
The equilibrium structure of rotating polytropes with a compact core has been studied by means of Chandrasekhar's first-order perturbation theory. Several numerical solutions are given. The results show that the larger the core mass, the smaller the critical central angular velocity will be, and for the same angular velocity, the larger the core mass, the more oblate the rotation ellipsoid will be.
