2.1.5.1 Solved using first_order_ode_exact

Entering first order ode exact solver
\begin{align*}
5 x +2 y+1+\left (2 x +y+1\right ) y^{\prime }&=0 \\
\end{align*}
We assume there exists a function \(\phi \left ( x,y\right ) =c\) where \(c\) is constant, that
satisfies the ode. Taking derivative of \(\phi \) w.r.t. \(x\) gives
But since \(\frac {\partial ^{2}\phi }{\partial x\partial y}=\frac {\partial ^{2}\phi }{\partial y\partial x}\) then for the above to be valid, we require that
If the above condition is satisfied, then
the original ode is called exact. We still need to determine \(\phi \left ( x,y\right ) \) but at least we know now that we can
do that since the condition \(\frac {\partial ^{2}\phi }{\partial x\partial y}=\frac {\partial ^{2}\phi }{\partial y\partial x}\) is satisfied. If this condition is not satisfied then this method will not
work and we have to now look for an integrating factor to force this condition, which might or
might not exist. The first step is to write the ODE in standard form to check for exactness, which
is
Since \(\frac {\partial M}{\partial y}= \frac {\partial N}{\partial x}\), then the ODE is exactThe following equations are now set up to solve for the function \(\phi \left (x,y\right )\)
Where \(f(y)\) is used for the constant of integration since \(\phi \) is a function of
both \(x\) and \(y\). Taking derivative of equation (3) w.r.t \(y\) gives
Where \(c_1\)
is constant of integration. Substituting result found above for \(f(y)\) into equation (3) gives \(\phi \)
\[
\phi = \frac {x \left (5 x +4 y +2\right )}{2}+\frac {y^{2}}{2}+y+ c_1
\]
But since \(\phi \)
itself is a constant function, then let \(\phi =c_2\) where \(c_2\) is new constant and combining \(c_1\) and \(c_2\) constants into
the constant \(c_1\) gives the solution as
\[
c_1 = \frac {x \left (5 x +4 y +2\right )}{2}+\frac {y^{2}}{2}+y
\]
Simplifying the above gives
\begin{align*}
2 y x +\frac {5 x^{2}}{2}+x +\frac {y^{2}}{2}+y &= c_1 \\
\end{align*}
Solving for \(y\) gives
\begin{align*}
y &= -2 x -1-\sqrt {-x^{2}+2 c_1 +2 x +1} \\
y &= -2 x -1+\sqrt {-x^{2}+2 c_1 +2 x +1} \\
\end{align*}

2.1.5.2 Solved using first_order_ode_dAlembert

Entering first order ode dAlembert solver
\begin{align*}
5 x +2 y+1+\left (2 x +y+1\right ) y^{\prime }&=0 \\
\end{align*}
Let \(p=y^{\prime }\) the ode becomes
\begin{align*} 5 x +2 y +1+\left (2 x +y +1\right ) p = 0 \end{align*}
Solving for \(y\) from the above results in
\begin{align*}
\tag{1} y &= -\frac {\left (2 p +5\right ) x}{2+p}-\frac {p +1}{2+p} \\
\end{align*}
This has the form
\begin{align*} y=x f(p)+g(p)\tag {*} \end{align*}
Where \(f,g\) are functions of \(p=y'(x)\). The above ode is dAlembert ode which is now solved.
We now need to
find the singular solutions, these are found by finding for what values \(g(p)\) is zero, since we had to
divide by this above. Solving \(g(p)=0\) or
\begin{align*} p \left (x \right )&=-2\\ p \left (x \right )&=-2-i \end{align*}
Now we go over each such singular solution and check if it verifies the ode itself and any initial
conditions given. If it does not then the singular solution will not be used.
Solving for possible values of \(x_{0}\) and \(y_{0}\) which makes the above ode a homogeneous ode
results in
\begin{align*} x_{0}&=1\\ y_{0}&=-3 \end{align*}
Using these values now it is possible to easily solve for \(Y \left (X \right )\). The above ode now becomes
\begin{align*} \frac {d}{d X}Y \left (X \right ) = -\frac {5 X +2 Y \left (X \right )}{2 X +Y \left (X \right )} \end{align*}
In canonical form, the ODE is
\begin{align*} Y' &= F(X,Y)\\ &= -\frac {5 X +2 Y}{2 X +Y}\tag {1} \end{align*}
An ode of the form \(Y' = \frac {M(X,Y)}{N(X,Y)}\) is called homogeneous if the functions \(M(X,Y)\) and \(N(X,Y)\) are both homogeneous functions
and of the same order. Recall that a function \(f(X,Y)\) is homogeneous of order \(n\) if
\[ f(t^n X, t^n Y)= t^n f(X,Y) \]
In this case, it can be
seen that both \(M=-5 X -2 Y\) and \(N=2 X +Y\) are both homogeneous and of the same order \(n=1\). Therefore this is a
homogeneous ode. Since this ode is homogeneous, it is converted to separable ODE using the
substitution \(u=\frac {Y}{X}\), or \(Y=uX\). Hence
We now need to
find the singular solutions, these are found by finding for what values \(g(u)\) is zero, since we had to
divide by this above. Solving \(g(u)=0\) or
\[
\frac {u^{2}+4 u +5}{u +2}=0
\]
for \(u \left (X \right )\) gives
\begin{align*} u \left (X \right )&=-2-i\\ u \left (X \right )&=-2+i \end{align*}
Now we go over each such singular solution and check if it verifies the ode itself and any initial
conditions given. If it does not then the singular solution will not be used.
\begin{align*}
y &= -2 x -1-\sqrt {c_1^{2}-x^{2}+2 x -1} \\
y &= -2 x -1+\sqrt {c_1^{2}-x^{2}+2 x -1} \\
y &= -i x -2 x +i-1 \\
y &= i x -2 x -i-1 \\

Entering first order ode LIE solver
\begin{align*}
5 x +2 y+1+\left (2 x +y+1\right ) y^{\prime }&=0 \\
\end{align*}
Writing the ode as
\begin{align*} y^{\prime }&=-\frac {5 x +2 y +1}{2 x +y +1}\\ y^{\prime }&= \omega \left ( x,y\right ) \end{align*}
The condition of Lie symmetry is the linearized PDE given by
Substituting equations (1E,2E) and \(\omega \) into (A)
gives
\begin{equation}
\tag{5E} b_{2}-\frac {\left (5 x +2 y +1\right ) \left (b_{3}-a_{2}\right )}{2 x +y +1}-\frac {\left (5 x +2 y +1\right )^{2} a_{3}}{\left (2 x +y +1\right )^{2}}-\left (-\frac {5}{2 x +y +1}+\frac {10 x +4 y +2}{\left (2 x +y +1\right )^{2}}\right ) \left (x a_{2}+y a_{3}+a_{1}\right )-\left (-\frac {2}{2 x +y +1}+\frac {5 x +2 y +1}{\left (2 x +y +1\right )^{2}}\right ) \left (x b_{2}+y b_{3}+b_{1}\right ) = 0
\end{equation}
Putting the above in normal form gives
\[
\frac {10 x^{2} a_{2}-25 x^{2} a_{3}+3 x^{2} b_{2}-10 x^{2} b_{3}+10 x y a_{2}-20 x y a_{3}+4 x y b_{2}-10 x y b_{3}+2 y^{2} a_{2}-3 y^{2} a_{3}+y^{2} b_{2}-2 y^{2} b_{3}+10 x a_{2}-10 x a_{3}-x b_{1}+5 x b_{2}-7 x b_{3}+y a_{1}+3 y a_{2}-y a_{3}+2 y b_{2}-2 y b_{3}+3 a_{1}+a_{2}-a_{3}+b_{1}+b_{2}-b_{3}}{\left (2 x +y +1\right )^{2}} = 0
\]
Setting the numerator to zero gives
\begin{equation}
\tag{6E} 10 x^{2} a_{2}-25 x^{2} a_{3}+3 x^{2} b_{2}-10 x^{2} b_{3}+10 x y a_{2}-20 x y a_{3}+4 x y b_{2}-10 x y b_{3}+2 y^{2} a_{2}-3 y^{2} a_{3}+y^{2} b_{2}-2 y^{2} b_{3}+10 x a_{2}-10 x a_{3}-x b_{1}+5 x b_{2}-7 x b_{3}+y a_{1}+3 y a_{2}-y a_{3}+2 y b_{2}-2 y b_{3}+3 a_{1}+a_{2}-a_{3}+b_{1}+b_{2}-b_{3} = 0
\end{equation}
Looking at
the above PDE shows the following are all the terms with \(\{x, y\}\) in them.
\[
\{x, y\}
\]
The following substitution is
now made to be able to collect on all terms with \(\{x, y\}\) in them
Shifting is now applied to make \(\xi =0\) in order to simplify the rest of the
computation
\begin{align*} \eta &= \eta - \omega \left (x,y\right ) \xi \\ &= y +3 - \left (-\frac {5 x +2 y +1}{2 x +y +1}\right ) \left (-1+x\right ) \\ &= y +3+\frac {\left (5 x +2 y +1\right ) \left (-1+x \right )}{2 x +y +1}\\ \xi &= 0 \end{align*}
The next step is to determine the canonical coordinates \(R,S\). The canonical coordinates map \(\left ( x,y\right ) \to \left ( R,S \right )\) where \(\left ( R,S \right )\)
are the canonical coordinates which make the original ode become a quadrature and hence solved
by integration.
The characteristic pde which is used to find the canonical coordinates is
The above comes from the requirements that \(\left ( \xi \frac {\partial }{\partial x} + \eta \frac {\partial }{\partial y}\right ) S(x,y) = 1\). Starting with the first pair of ode’s in (1) gives an
ode to solve for the independent variable \(R\) in the canonical coordinates, where \(S(R)\). Since \(\xi =0\) then in this
special case
\begin{align*} R = x \end{align*}
\(S\) is found from
\begin{align*} S &= \int { \frac {1}{\eta }} dy\\ &= \int { \frac {1}{y +3+\frac {\left (5 x +2 y +1\right ) \left (-1+x \right )}{2 x +y +1}}} dy \end{align*}
Which results in
\begin{align*} S&= \frac {\ln \left (5 x^{2}+4 y x +y^{2}+2 x +2 y +2\right )}{2} \end{align*}
Now that \(R,S\) are found, we need to setup the ode in these coordinates. This is done by evaluating
Where in the above \(R_{x},R_{y},S_{x},S_{y}\) are all partial derivatives and \(\omega (x,y)\) is the right hand side of the original ode
given by
\begin{align*} \omega (x,y) &= -\frac {5 x +2 y +1}{2 x +y +1} \end{align*}
Evaluating all the partial derivatives gives
\begin{align*} R_{x} &= 1\\ R_{y} &= 0\\ S_{x} &= \frac {5 x +2 y +1}{5 x^{2}+\left (4 y +2\right ) x +y^{2}+2 y +2}\\ S_{y} &= \frac {2 x +y +1}{y^{2}+\left (4 x +2\right ) y +5 x^{2}+2 x +2} \end{align*}
Substituting all the above in (2) and simplifying gives the ode in canonical coordinates.
We now need to express the RHS as function of \(R\) only. This is done by solving for \(x,y\) in terms of \(R,S\)
from the result obtained earlier and simplifying. This gives
\begin{align*} \frac {dS}{dR} &= 0 \end{align*}
The above is a quadrature ode. This is the whole point of Lie symmetry method. It converts an
ode, no matter how complicated it is, to one that can be solved by integration when the ode is in
the canonical coordiates \(R,S\).
Since the ode has the form \(\frac {d}{d R}S \left (R \right )=f(R)\), then we only need to integrate \(f(R)\).
