Following the 3+1 formalism of General Relativity we write the Einstein equations for a stationary rotating neutron star specially suited to be solved numerically with spectral methods. We also provide the equations of motion to study the normal modes once the star is perturbed from the stationary axisymmetric equilibrium configuration.
