That's effectively the Schwarzschild solution unless the a star is
rotating very fast. You don't even have to make the assumption that the
mass is concentrated at the center, you just assume spherical symmetry.

What I mean is not some simple minded answer such as solving for this
or that tensor in the field equation, but something like this; suppose
we consider a star of mass M, with all mass contained in its center
for simplicity. How would we calculate the spacetime curvature in a
region around this star? TY, AG

Basic question; when a solution is sought, what exactly can we
solve for? TY, AG
