[en] One of the main sources of uncertainty in the asteroseismic models of the Sun and solar-like stars is the poor match between predicted oscillation frequencies and observed ones in the very high frequency domain. Today, effects of turbulence, diffusion, etc., i.e., the so-called "surface effects" are signaled as possible responsible for such a discrepancy. We show that the effect of the stellar deformation due to rotation is of the same order or even larger than these effects. We show that rotation effects, are important for the asteroseismic analysis of the Sun and solar-like stars and they cannot be neglected when modeling such stars.
