Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_3rd_order, _with_linear_symmetries]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime \prime }-3 a y^{\prime \prime }+3 a^{2} y^{\prime }-a^{3} y={\mathrm e}^{a x}} \] This is higher order nonhomogeneous ODE. Let the solution be \[ y = y_h + y_p \] Where \(y_h\) is the solution to the homogeneous ODE And \(y_p\) is a particular solution to the nonhomogeneous ODE. \(y_h\) is the solution to \[ y^{\prime \prime \prime }-3 a y^{\prime \prime }+3 a^{2} y^{\prime }-a^{3} y = 0 \] The characteristic equation is \[ -a^{3}+3 a^{2} \lambda -3 a \,\lambda ^{2}+\lambda ^{3} = 0 \] The roots of the above equation are \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= a\\ \lambda _2 &= a\\ \lambda _3 &= a \end {align*}

Therefore the homogeneous solution is \[ y_h(x)={\mathrm e}^{a x} c_{1} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{a x} c_{2} +x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x} c_{3} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin{align*} y_1 &= {\mathrm e}^{a x} \\ y_2 &= x \,{\mathrm e}^{a x} \\ y_3 &= x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x} \\ \end{align*} Now the particular solution to the given ODE is found \[ y^{\prime \prime \prime }-3 a y^{\prime \prime }+3 a^{2} y^{\prime }-a^{3} y = {\mathrm e}^{a x} \] The particular solution is found using the method of undetermined coefficients. Looking at the RHS of the ode, which is \[ {\mathrm e}^{a x} \] Shows that the corresponding undetermined set of the basis functions (UC_set) for the trial solution is \[ [\{{\mathrm e}^{a x}\}] \] While the set of the basis functions for the homogeneous solution found earlier is \[ \{x \,{\mathrm e}^{a x}, x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x}, {\mathrm e}^{a x}\} \] Since \({\mathrm e}^{a x}\) is duplicated in the UC_set, then this basis is multiplied by extra \(x\). The UC_set becomes \[ [\{x \,{\mathrm e}^{a x}\}] \] Since \(x \,{\mathrm e}^{a x}\) is duplicated in the UC_set, then this basis is multiplied by extra \(x\). The UC_set becomes \[ [\{x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x}\}] \] Since \(x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x}\) is duplicated in the UC_set, then this basis is multiplied by extra \(x\). The UC_set becomes \[ [\{x^{3} {\mathrm e}^{a x}\}] \] Since there was duplication between the basis functions in the UC_set and the basis functions of the homogeneous solution, the trial solution is a linear combination of all the basis function in the above updated UC_set. \[ y_p = A_{1} x^{3} {\mathrm e}^{a x} \] The unknowns \(\{A_{1}\}\) are found by substituting the above trial solution \(y_p\) into the ODE and comparing coefficients. Substituting the trial solution into the ODE and simplifying gives \[ 6 A_{1} {\mathrm e}^{a x}+18 A_{1} x a \,{\mathrm e}^{a x}+9 A_{1} x^{2} a^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x}-3 a \left (6 A_{1} x \,{\mathrm e}^{a x}+6 A_{1} x^{2} a \,{\mathrm e}^{a x}+A_{1} x^{3} a^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x}\right )+3 a^{2} \left (3 A_{1} x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x}+A_{1} x^{3} a \,{\mathrm e}^{a x}\right ) = {\mathrm e}^{a x} \] Solving for the unknowns by comparing coefficients results in \[ \left [A_{1} = {\frac {1}{6}}\right ] \] Substituting the above back in the above trial solution \(y_p\), gives the particular solution \[ y_p = \frac {x^{3} {\mathrm e}^{a x}}{6} \] Therefore the general solution is \begin{align*} y &= y_h + y_p \\ &= \left ({\mathrm e}^{a x} c_{1} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{a x} c_{2} +x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{a x} c_{3}\right ) + \left (\frac {x^{3} {\mathrm e}^{a x}}{6}\right ) \\ \end{align*} Which simplifies to \[ y = {\mathrm e}^{a x} \left (c_{3} x^{2}+c_{2} x +c_{1} \right )+\frac {x^{3} {\mathrm e}^{a x}}{6} \]

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= {\mathrm e}^{a x} \left (c_{3} x^{2}+c_{2} x +c_{1} \right )+\frac {x^{3} {\mathrm e}^{a x}}{6} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = {\mathrm e}^{a x} \left (c_{3} x^{2}+c_{2} x +c_{1} \right )+\frac {x^{3} {\mathrm e}^{a x}}{6} \] Verified OK.
