4.20.1 Solving as homogeneous ode

In canonical form, the ODE is \begin {align*} y' &= F(x,y)\\ &= -\frac {y a +x}{-a 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 \(M=y a +x\) and \(N=a x -y\) 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 \[ \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}y}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}= \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}u}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}x + u \] Applying the transformation \(y=ux\) to the above ODE in (1) gives \begin {align*} \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}u}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}x + u &= \frac {a u +1}{a -u}\\ \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}u}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}} &= \frac {\frac {a u \left (x \right )+1}{a -u \left (x \right )}-u \left (x \right )}{x} \end {align*}

Or \[ u^{\prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {\frac {a u \left (x \right )+1}{a -u \left (x \right )}-u \left (x \right )}{x} = 0 \] Or \[ u^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x u \left (x \right )-u^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x a +u \left (x \right )^{2}+1 = 0 \] Or \[ -x \left (a -u \left (x \right )\right ) u^{\prime }\left (x \right )+u \left (x \right )^{2}+1 = 0 \] Which is now solved as separable in \(u \left (x \right )\). Which is now solved in \(u \left (x \right )\). In canonical form the ODE is \begin {align*} u' &= F(x,u)\\ &= f( x) g(u)\\ &= -\frac {-u^{2}-1}{x \left (a -u \right )} \end {align*}

Where \(f(x)=-\frac {1}{x}\) and \(g(u)=\frac {-u^{2}-1}{a -u}\). Integrating both sides gives \begin{align*} \frac {1}{\frac {-u^{2}-1}{a -u}} \,du &= -\frac {1}{x} \,d x \\ \int { \frac {1}{\frac {-u^{2}-1}{a -u}} \,du} &= \int {-\frac {1}{x} \,d x} \\ \frac {\ln \left (u^{2}+1\right )}{2}-a \arctan \left (u \right )&=-\ln \left (x \right )+c_{2} \\ \end{align*} The solution is \[ \frac {\ln \left (u \left (x \right )^{2}+1\right )}{2}-a \arctan \left (u \left (x \right )\right )+\ln \left (x \right )-c_{2} = 0 \] Now \(u\) in the above solution is replaced back by \(y\) using \(u=\frac {y}{x}\) which results in the solution \[ \frac {\ln \left (\frac {y^{2}}{x^{2}}+1\right )}{2}-a \arctan \left (\frac {y}{x}\right )+\ln \left (x \right )-c_{2} = 0 \]

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} \frac {\ln \left (\frac {y^{2}}{x^{2}}+1\right )}{2}-a \arctan \left (\frac {y}{x}\right )+\ln \left (x \right )-c_{2} &= 0 \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ \frac {\ln \left (\frac {y^{2}}{x^{2}}+1\right )}{2}-a \arctan \left (\frac {y}{x}\right )+\ln \left (x \right )-c_{2} = 0 \] Verified OK.
