This is Riccati first order non-linear ODE of the form of the general form where . It is best to first
try to spot a particular solution and use the transformation otherwise we use transformation. For
this problem
To verify, since then plugging this particular in (1) gives
But and and therefore the above becomes
Therefore we, we can use
Equating this to (1) gives
Using and then above becomes
Hence
Integrating factor is . But And Hence , therefore
Integrating both sides
Since then
I do not know how Maple came up with the solution involving HeunC functions since has no
closed form solution. I should ask CAS experts about this.
Below is screen shot from Kamke book of the solution it gives, which matches the above
result
