3.1.2 Example 2
First we find the region where solution exists and is unique. . The domain of is since we do not want complex values. Hence solution exists. The domain of is . Hence the region is all and . i.e. the top half of the plane not including -axis. Since the point given is on the -axis, then the theory do not apply. There is no guarantee solution is unique. Only way to find out is to try to solve the ode and find out. Solving the
ode gives
Applying IC gives . Hence solution is
Solving for
Taking the square root of both sides gives
So there are two solutions. There is also a trivial solution . We see that the solution exists but not unique.
