Does rotation influence stellar evolution? Does it cause observational effects other than line broadening? Can rotation be responsible for mixing of chemical elements throughout the star? Do evolved stars have rapidly rotating cores? This, for instance, is of interest if one wants to compute the details of supernova events. We are not sure whether rotation has really important effects on the life of a star. There might be no rapidly rotating cores. If we think that a fossile general magnetic field couples core and envelope of an evolved star, the core will always be slowed down by the big inertial momentum of the outer regions.
