Solved as second order ode using Kovacic algorithm

Time used: 0.550 (sec)

Writing the ode as

(1)(16x4+8x2)y+(68x3+10x)y+(30x21)y=0(2)Ay+By+Cy=0

Comparing (1) and (2) shows that

A=16x4+8x2(3)B=68x3+10xC=30x21

Applying the Liouville transformation on the dependent variable gives

z(x)=yeB2Adx

Then (2) becomes

(4)z(x)=rz(x)

Where r is given by

(5)r=st=2AB2BA+B24AC4A2

Substituting the values of A,B,C from (3) in the above and simplifying gives

(6)r=132x4+148x2764(2x3+x)2

Comparing the above to (5) shows that

s=132x4+148x27t=64(2x3+x)2

Therefore eq. (4) becomes

(7)z(x)=(132x4+148x2764(2x3+x)2)z(x)

Equation (7) is now solved. After finding z(x) then y is found using the inverse transformation

y=z(x)eB2Adx

The first step is to determine the case of Kovacic algorithm this ode belongs to. There are 3 cases depending on the order of poles of r and the order of r at . The following table summarizes these cases.

Case

Allowed pole order for r

Allowed value for O()

1

{0,1,2,4,6,8,}

{,6,4,2,0,2,3,4,5,6,}

2

Need to have at least one pole that is either order 2 or odd order greater than 2. Any other pole order is allowed as long as the above condition is satisfied. Hence the following set of pole orders are all allowed. {1,2},{1,3},{2},{3},{3,4},{1,2,5}.

no condition

3

{1,2}

{2,3,4,5,6,7,}

Table 2.533: Necessary conditions for each Kovacic case

The order of r at is the degree of t minus the degree of s. Therefore

O()=deg(t)deg(s)=64=2

The poles of r in eq. (7) and the order of each pole are determined by solving for the roots of t=64(2x3+x)2. There is a pole at x=0 of order 2. There is a pole at x=i22 of order 2. There is a pole at x=i22 of order 2. Since there is no odd order pole larger than 2 and the order at is 2 then the necessary conditions for case one are met. Since there is a pole of order 2 then necessary conditions for case two are met. Since pole order is not larger than 2 and the order at is 2 then the necessary conditions for case three are met. Therefore

L=[1,2,4,6,12]

Attempting to find a solution using case n=1.

Looking at poles of order 2. The partial fractions decomposition of r is

r=316(xi22)2316(x+i22)2i22(xi22)+i22x+i2764x2

For the pole at x=0 let b be the coefficient of 1x2 in the partial fractions decomposition of r given above. Therefore b=764. Hence

[r]c=0αc+=12+1+4b=78αc=121+4b=18

For the pole at x=i22 let b be the coefficient of 1(xi22)2 in the partial fractions decomposition of r given above. Therefore b=316. Hence

[r]c=0αc+=12+1+4b=34αc=121+4b=14

For the pole at x=i22 let b be the coefficient of 1(x+i22)2 in the partial fractions decomposition of r given above. Therefore b=316. Hence

[r]c=0αc+=12+1+4b=34αc=121+4b=14

Since the order of r at is 2 then [r]=0. Let b be the coefficient of 1x2 in the Laurent series expansion of r at . which can be found by dividing the leading coefficient of s by the leading coefficient of t from

r=st=132x4+148x2764(2x3+x)2

Since the gcd(s,t)=1. This gives b=3364. Hence

[r]=0α+=12+1+4b=118α=121+4b=38

The following table summarizes the findings so far for poles and for the order of r at where r is

r=132x4+148x2764(2x3+x)2

pole c location pole order [r]c αc+ αc
0 2 0 78 18
i22 2 0 34 14
i22 2 0 34 14

Order of r at [r] α+ α
2 0 118 38

Now that the all [r]c and its associated αc± have been determined for all the poles in the set Γ and [r] and its associated α± have also been found, the next step is to determine possible non negative integer d from these using

d=αs()cΓαcs(c)

Where s(c) is either + or and s() is the sign of α±. This is done by trial over all set of families s=(s(c))cΓ until such d is found to work in finding candidate ω. Trying α+=118 then

d=α+(αc1++αc2+αc3)=118(118)=0

Since d an integer and d0 then it can be used to find ω using

ω=cΓ(s(c)[r]c+αcs(c)xc)+s()[r]

Substituting the above values in the above results in

ω=((+)[r]c1+αc1+xc1)+(()[r]c2+αc2xc2)+(()[r]c3+αc3xc3)+(+)[r]=78x+14x2i2+14x+2i2+(0)=78x+14x2i2+14x+2i2=22x2+716x3+8x

Now that ω is determined, the next step is find a corresponding minimal polynomial p(x) of degree d=0 to solve the ode. The polynomial p(x) needs to satisfy the equation

(1A)p+2ωp+(ω+ω2r)p=0

Let

(2A)p(x)=1

Substituting the above in eq. (1A) gives

(0)+2(78x+14x2i2+14x+2i2)(0)+((78x214(xi22)214(x+i22)2)+(78x+14x2i2+14x+2i2)2(132x4+148x2764(2x3+x)2))=00=0

The equation is satisfied since both sides are zero. Therefore the first solution to the ode z=rz is

z1(x)=peωdx=e(78x+14x2i2+14x+2i2)dx=21/4(2x2+1)1/4x7/8

The first solution to the original ode in y is found from

y1=z1e12BAdx=z1e1268x3+10x16x4+8x2dx=z1e3ln(2x2+1)45ln(x)8=z1(1(2x2+1)3/4x5/8)

Which simplifies to

y1=x1/421/42x2+1

The second solution y2 to the original ode is found using reduction of order

y2=y1eBAdxy12dx

Substituting gives

y2=y1e68x3+10x16x4+8x2dx(y1)2dx=y1e3ln(2x2+1)25ln(x)4(y1)2dx=y1(e3ln(2x2+1)25ln(x)4(2x2+1)22xdx)

Therefore the solution is

y=c1y1+c2y2=c1(x1/421/42x2+1)+c2(x1/421/42x2+1(e3ln(2x2+1)25ln(x)4(2x2+1)22xdx))

Will add steps showing solving for IC soon.
