V. Perlick et Cm. Xu, MATCHING EXTERIOR TO INTERIOR SOLUTIONS IN WEYL GRAVITY - COMMENT ON EXACT VACUUM SOLUTION TO CONFORMAL WEYL GRAVITY AND GALACTIC ROTATION CURVES, The Astrophysical journal, 449(1), 1995, pp. 47-51
Recently Mannheim and Kazanas presented the static, spherically symmet
ric exact vacuum solution of Weyl gravity and suggested that it could
be fitted to general relativistic experimental tests in the solar syst
em and to the observed galactic rotation curves. Here we discuss match
ing this solution to an interior one that satisfies the weak energy co
ndition and a regularity condition at the center. We show that this le
ads to contradiction of Mannheim and Kazanas's suggestion.
