The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "second_order_ode_missing_x"
Maple gives the following as the ode type
[[_2nd_order, _missing_x], [_2nd_order, _reducible, _mu_x_y1]]
\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime } y=a} \]
This is missing independent variable second order ode. Solved by reduction of order by using substitution which makes the dependent variable \(y\) an independent variable. Using \begin {align*} y' &= p(y) \end {align*}
Then \begin {align*} y'' &= \frac {dp}{dx}\\ &= \frac {dy}{dx} \frac {dp}{dy}\\ &= p \frac {dp}{dy} \end {align*}
Hence the ode becomes \begin {align*} p \left (y \right ) \left (\frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )\right ) y = a \end {align*}
Which is now solved as first order ode for \(p(y)\). In canonical form the ODE is \begin {align*} p' &= F(y,p)\\ &= f( y) g(p)\\ &= \frac {a}{p y} \end {align*}
Where \(f(y)=\frac {a}{y}\) and \(g(p)=\frac {1}{p}\). Integrating both sides gives \begin{align*} \frac {1}{\frac {1}{p}} \,dp &= \frac {a}{y} \,d y \\ \int { \frac {1}{\frac {1}{p}} \,dp} &= \int {\frac {a}{y} \,d y} \\ \frac {p^{2}}{2}&=a \ln \left (y \right )+c_{1} \\ \end{align*} The solution is \[ \frac {p \left (y \right )^{2}}{2}-a \ln \left (y \right )-c_{1} = 0 \] For solution (1) found earlier, since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then we now have a new first order ode to solve which is \begin {align*} \frac {{y^{\prime }}^{2}}{2}-a \ln \left (y\right )-c_{1} = 0 \end {align*}
Solving the given ode for \(y^{\prime }\) results in \(2\) differential equations to solve. Each one of these will generate a solution. The equations generated are \begin {align*} y^{\prime }&=\sqrt {2 a \ln \left (y\right )+2 c_{1}} \tag {1} \\ y^{\prime }&=-\sqrt {2 a \ln \left (y\right )+2 c_{1}} \tag {2} \end {align*}
Now each one of the above ODE is solved.
Solving equation (1)
Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} \int _{}^{y}\frac {1}{\sqrt {2 a \ln \left (\textit {\_a} \right )+2 c_{1}}}d \textit {\_a} = x +c_{2} \end {align*}
Solving equation (2)
Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} \int _{}^{y}-\frac {1}{\sqrt {2 a \ln \left (\textit {\_a} \right )+2 c_{1}}}d \textit {\_a} = x +c_{3} \end {align*}
Summary
The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} \int _{}^{y}\frac {1}{\sqrt {2 a \ln \left (\textit {\_a} \right )+2 c_{1}}}d \textit {\_a} &= x +c_{2} \\ \tag{2} \int _{}^{y}-\frac {1}{\sqrt {2 a \ln \left (\textit {\_a} \right )+2 c_{1}}}d \textit {\_a} &= x +c_{3} \\ \end{align*}
