Abstract
Abstract This paper studies in detail the general physical properties inherent to the static fluid configurations possessing hyperbolic symmetry through the mechanism of modified Gauss–Bonnet gravity (GBG). The energy density of the anisotropic fluid configuration seems to be essentially negative, which indicates that any possible application of these fluid distributions needs severe physical constraints wherein quantum processes become significant. Several exact hyperbolically symmetric solutions with their corresponding generating functions are presented by imposing certain conditions (i.e., conformal flatness, vanishing complexity factor and stiff equation of state) on the fluid variables in the presence of higher-curvature GBG-corrections. Few of the provided stellar solutions exhibit the evolution of hyperbolically symmetric matter configurations whose center of symmetry is surrounded by a vacuum cavity.
