Description of the gravitational potential of bodies of revolution

Possibility of description of external gravitational potential of axially symmetric body with the potential of inhomogeneous pivot is analyzed. Depending on the body's shape such pivots can be both real and complex. Examples of calculation of the density distribution in such pivots are given.
