The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "second_order_ode_missing_x", "second_order_ode_can_be_made_integrable"

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_2nd_order, _missing_x], [_2nd_order, _reducible, _mu_x_y1]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime }+{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}=0} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \left (3\right ) = 0, y^{\prime }\left (3\right ) = -1] \end {align*}

4.18.1 Solving as second order ode can be made integrable ode

Multiplying the ode by \(y^{\prime }\) gives \[ y^{\prime } y^{\prime \prime }+y^{\prime } {\mathrm e}^{-2 y} = 0 \] Integrating the above w.r.t \(x\) gives \begin {align*} \int \left (y^{\prime } y^{\prime \prime }+y^{\prime } {\mathrm e}^{-2 y}\right )d x &= 0 \\ \frac {{y^{\prime }}^{2}}{2}-\frac {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}}{2} = c_2 \end {align*}

Which is now solved for \(y\). 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 {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+2 c_{1}} \tag {1} \\ y^{\prime }&=-\sqrt {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+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 \frac {1}{\sqrt {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+2 c_{1}}}d y &= \int d x \\ \frac {\sqrt {2}\, \operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {\sqrt {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+2 c_{1}}\, \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}\right )}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}&=x +c_{2} \\ \end{align*} Solving equation (2)

Integrating both sides gives \begin{align*} \int -\frac {1}{\sqrt {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+2 c_{1}}}d y &= \int d x \\ -\frac {\sqrt {2}\, \operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {\sqrt {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+2 c_{1}}\, \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}\right )}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}&=x +c_{3} \\ \end{align*} Initial conditions are used to solve for the constants of integration.

Looking at the First solution \begin {align*} \frac {\sqrt {2}\, \operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {\sqrt {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+2 c_{1}}\, \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}\right )}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}} = x +c_{2} \tag {1} \end {align*}

Initial conditions are now substituted in the above solution. This will generate the required equations to solve for the integration constants. substituting \(y = 0\) and \(x = 3\) in the above gives \begin {align*} \frac {\operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {\sqrt {1+2 c_{1}}\, \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}\right ) \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}} = 3+c_{2}\tag {1A} \end {align*}

Taking derivative of the solution gives \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = -\frac {2 \tanh \left (\sqrt {c_{1}}\, \left (x +c_{2} \right ) \sqrt {2}\right ) c_{1}^{\frac {3}{2}} \sqrt {2}\, \left (1-\tanh \left (\sqrt {c_{1}}\, \left (x +c_{2} \right ) \sqrt {2}\right )^{2}\right )}{2 \tanh \left (\sqrt {c_{1}}\, \left (x +c_{2} \right ) \sqrt {2}\right )^{2} c_{1} -2 c_{1}} \end {align*}

substituting \(y^{\prime } = -1\) and \(x = 3\) in the above gives \begin {align*} -1 = \frac {\left ({\mathrm e}^{2 \left (3+c_{2} \right ) \sqrt {2}\, \sqrt {c_{1}}}-1\right ) \sqrt {2}\, \sqrt {c_{1}}}{{\mathrm e}^{2 \left (3+c_{2} \right ) \sqrt {2}\, \sqrt {c_{1}}}+1}\tag {2A} \end {align*}

Equations {1A,2A} are now solved for \(\{c_{1}, c_{2}\}\). There is no solution for the constants of integrations. This solution is removed.

Looking at the Second solution \begin {align*} -\frac {\sqrt {2}\, \operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {\sqrt {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}+2 c_{1}}\, \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}\right )}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}} = x +c_{3} \tag {2} \end {align*}

Initial conditions are now substituted in the above solution. This will generate the required equations to solve for the integration constants. substituting \(y = 0\) and \(x = 3\) in the above gives \begin {align*} -\frac {\operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {\sqrt {1+2 c_{1}}\, \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}}\right ) \sqrt {2}}{2 \sqrt {c_{1}}} = 3+c_{3}\tag {1A} \end {align*}

Taking derivative of the solution gives \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = -\frac {2 \tanh \left (\sqrt {c_{1}}\, \left (x +c_{3} \right ) \sqrt {2}\right ) c_{1}^{\frac {3}{2}} \sqrt {2}\, \left (1-\tanh \left (\sqrt {c_{1}}\, \left (x +c_{3} \right ) \sqrt {2}\right )^{2}\right )}{2 \tanh \left (\sqrt {c_{1}}\, \left (x +c_{3} \right ) \sqrt {2}\right )^{2} c_{1} -2 c_{1}} \end {align*}

substituting \(y^{\prime } = -1\) and \(x = 3\) in the above gives \begin {align*} -1 = \frac {\left ({\mathrm e}^{2 \left (3+c_{3} \right ) \sqrt {2}\, \sqrt {c_{1}}}-1\right ) \sqrt {2}\, \sqrt {c_{1}}}{{\mathrm e}^{2 \left (3+c_{3} \right ) \sqrt {2}\, \sqrt {c_{1}}}+1}\tag {2A} \end {align*}

Equations {1A,2A} are now solved for \(\{c_{1}, c_{3}\}\). There is no solution for the constants of integrations. This solution is removed.

4.18.2 Solving as second order ode missing x ode

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 ) = -{\mathrm e}^{-2 y} \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 {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}}{p} \end {align*}

Where \(f(y)=-{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}\) and \(g(p)=\frac {1}{p}\). Integrating both sides gives \begin{align*} \frac {1}{\frac {1}{p}} \,dp &= -{\mathrm e}^{-2 y} \,d y \\ \int { \frac {1}{\frac {1}{p}} \,dp} &= \int {-{\mathrm e}^{-2 y} \,d y} \\ \frac {p^{2}}{2}&=\frac {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}}{2}+c_{1} \\ \end{align*} The solution is \[ \frac {p \left (y \right )^{2}}{2}-\frac {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}}{2}-c_{1} = 0 \] Initial conditions are used to solve for \(c_{1}\). Substituting \(y=0\) and \(p=-1\) in the above solution gives an equation to solve for the constant of integration. \begin {align*} -c_{1} = 0 \end {align*}

The solutions are \begin {align*} c_{1} = 0 \end {align*}

Trying the constant \begin {align*} c_{1} = 0 \end {align*}

Substituting \(c_{1}\) found above in the general solution gives \begin {align*} \frac {p^{2}}{2}-\frac {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}}{2} = 0 \end {align*}

The constant \(c_{1} = 0\) gives valid solution.

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}-\frac {{\mathrm e}^{-2 y}}{2} = 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 }&={\mathrm e}^{-y} \tag {1} \\ y^{\prime }&=-{\mathrm e}^{-y} \tag {2} \end {align*}

Now each one of the above ODE is solved.

Solving equation (1)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} \int {\mathrm e}^{y}d y &= \int {dx}\\ {\mathrm e}^{y}&= x +c_{2} \end {align*}

Initial conditions are used to solve for \(c_{2}\). Substituting \(x=3\) and \(y=0\) in the above solution gives an equation to solve for the constant of integration. \begin {align*} 1 = 3+c_{2} \end {align*}

The solutions are \begin {align*} c_{2} = -2 \end {align*}

Trying the constant \begin {align*} c_{2} = -2 \end {align*}

Substituting \(c_{2}\) found above in the general solution gives \begin {align*} {\mathrm e}^{y} = x -2 \end {align*}

The constant \(c_{2} = -2\) gives valid solution.

Solving equation (2)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} \int -{\mathrm e}^{y}d y &= \int {dx}\\ -{\mathrm e}^{y}&= x +c_{3} \end {align*}

Initial conditions are used to solve for \(c_{3}\). Substituting \(x=3\) and \(y=0\) in the above solution gives an equation to solve for the constant of integration. \begin {align*} -1 = 3+c_{3} \end {align*}

The solutions are \begin {align*} c_{3} = -4 \end {align*}

Trying the constant \begin {align*} c_{3} = -4 \end {align*}

Substituting \(c_{3}\) found above in the general solution gives \begin {align*} -{\mathrm e}^{y} = x -4 \end {align*}

The constant \(c_{3} = -4\) gives valid solution.

Initial conditions are used to solve for the constants of integration.

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= \ln \left (x -2\right ) \\ \tag{2} y &= \ln \left (-x +4\right ) \\ \end{align*}
