Abstract The concept of complexity related to the celestial systems is elaborated within the context of distinct revised gravity theories. However, its interpretation in f ( R , G ) gravity is the main idea of our manuscript. We assume that the inner configuration of the system is a cylindrically symmetric geometry comprising the anisotropic configuration of matter. In our case study, we determine the revised equations of motion combined with the orthogonal decomposition of the Riemann tensor. The implications of anisotropic pressure and nonhomogeneous energy density are relevant. Decisive results relating to the Tolman mass, Weyl scalar, and the complexity factor are derived by incorporating dark source terms corresponding to the f ( R , G ) theory. Additionally, the structure scalars calculated in our manuscript are employed to derive the expression for the complexity factor, after considering reducing the complexity constraint to obtain the solutions for the specific models. The compact structures with anisotropic pressure and non-homogeneous energy density claim the maximum complexity. However, these fluids might not demonstrate any complexity if the implications of non-homogeneous energy density and anisotropic pressure are eradicated because of dark source terms corresponding to the f ( R , G ) theory.
