Properties of rotating neutron stars with the use of relativistic mean-field theory are considered. The performed analysis of neutron star matter is based on the nonlinear Lgrangian density. The presence of nonlinear interaction of vector mesons modifies the density dependence of the ρ field and influences bulk parameters of neutron stars. The observed quasiperiodic X-ray oscillations of low mass X-ray binaries can be used in order to constrain the equation of state of neutron star matter. Having assumed that the maximum frequency of the quasiperiodic oscillations originates at the circular orbit it is possible to estimate masses and radii of neutron stars.
