This is a mathematical paper on rotating drops in a vessel in which the fluid rotates with a constant angular velocity. The energy of any allowable configuration is given by volume terms of gravity and kinetic forces and surface contributions. The problem is to minimize the energy functional among all the subsets of prescribed volume. The authors prove the boundedness and regularity of the equilibrium configurations and the existence of interior points for equilibrium figures. This is a pure theoretical paper.
