Scientific paper

Integrodifferential equations have been obtained determining the gravitational fields and figures of planets with a given equation of state. Angular speed is an arbitrary function of the distance from the axis of rotation. Corrections to the figure and the external fields due to the differentiality of rotation have been calculated for simple models with parameters similar to those of Saturn and Jupiter.
