The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "second order series method. Regular singular point. Difference is integer"

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_2nd_order, _with_linear_symmetries]]

\[ \boxed {x^{2} \left (1-2 x \right ) y^{\prime \prime }+x \left (8-9 x \right ) y^{\prime }+\left (6-3 x \right ) y=0} \] With the expansion point for the power series method at \(x = 0\).

The type of the expansion point is first determined. This is done on the homogeneous part of the ODE. \[ \left (-2 x^{3}+x^{2}\right ) y^{\prime \prime }+\left (-9 x^{2}+8 x \right ) y^{\prime }+\left (6-3 x \right ) y = 0 \] The following is summary of singularities for the above ode. Writing the ode as \begin {align*} y^{\prime \prime }+p(x) y^{\prime } + q(x) y &=0 \end {align*}

Where \begin {align*} p(x) &= \frac {9 x -8}{x \left (2 x -1\right )}\\ q(x) &= \frac {3 x -6}{x^{2} \left (2 x -1\right )}\\ \end {align*}

Table 399: Table \(p(x),q(x)\) singularites.
\(p(x)=\frac {9 x -8}{x \left (2 x -1\right )}\)
singularity type
\(x = 0\) \(\text {``regular''}\)
\(x = {\frac {1}{2}}\) \(\text {``regular''}\)
\(q(x)=\frac {3 x -6}{x^{2} \left (2 x -1\right )}\)
singularity type
\(x = 0\) \(\text {``regular''}\)
\(x = {\frac {1}{2}}\) \(\text {``regular''}\)

Combining everything together gives the following summary of singularities for the ode as

Regular singular points : \(\left [0, {\frac {1}{2}}, \infty \right ]\)

Irregular singular points : \([]\)

Since \(x = 0\) is regular singular point, then Frobenius power series is used. The ode is normalized to be \[ -y^{\prime \prime } x^{2} \left (2 x -1\right )+\left (-9 x^{2}+8 x \right ) y^{\prime }+\left (6-3 x \right ) y = 0 \] Let the solution be represented as Frobenius power series of the form \[ y = \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}a_{n} x^{n +r} \] Then \begin{align*} y^{\prime } &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (n +r \right ) a_{n} x^{n +r -1} \\ y^{\prime \prime } &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right ) a_{n} x^{n +r -2} \\ \end{align*} Substituting the above back into the ode gives \begin{equation} \tag{1} -\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right ) a_{n} x^{n +r -2}\right ) x^{2} \left (2 x -1\right )+\left (-9 x^{2}+8 x \right ) \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (n +r \right ) a_{n} x^{n +r -1}\right )+\left (6-3 x \right ) \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}a_{n} x^{n +r}\right ) = 0 \end{equation} Which simplifies to \begin{equation} \tag{2A} \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-2 x^{1+n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )\right )+\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-9 x^{1+n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}8 x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}6 a_{n} x^{n +r}\right )+\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-3 x^{1+n +r} a_{n}\right ) = 0 \end{equation} The next step is to make all powers of \(x\) be \(n +r\) in each summation term. Going over each summation term above with power of \(x\) in it which is not already \(x^{n +r}\) and adjusting the power and the corresponding index gives \begin{align*} \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-2 x^{1+n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )\right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}\left (-2 a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) \left (n +r -2\right ) x^{n +r}\right ) \\ \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-9 x^{1+n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}\left (-9 a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) x^{n +r}\right ) \\ \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-3 x^{1+n +r} a_{n}\right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}\left (-3 a_{n -1} x^{n +r}\right ) \\ \end{align*} Substituting all the above in Eq (2A) gives the following equation where now all powers of \(x\) are the same and equal to \(n +r\). \begin{equation} \tag{2B} \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}\left (-2 a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) \left (n +r -2\right ) x^{n +r}\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )\right )+\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}\left (-9 a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) x^{n +r}\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}8 x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}6 a_{n} x^{n +r}\right )+\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}\left (-3 a_{n -1} x^{n +r}\right ) = 0 \end{equation} The indicial equation is obtained from \(n = 0\). From Eq (2B) this gives \[ x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )+8 x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )+6 a_{n} x^{n +r} = 0 \] When \(n = 0\) the above becomes \[ x^{r} a_{0} r \left (-1+r \right )+8 x^{r} a_{0} r +6 a_{0} x^{r} = 0 \] Or \[ \left (x^{r} r \left (-1+r \right )+8 x^{r} r +6 x^{r}\right ) a_{0} = 0 \] Since \(a_{0}\neq 0\) then the above simplifies to \[ \left (r^{2}+7 r +6\right ) x^{r} = 0 \] Since the above is true for all \(x\) then the indicial equation becomes \[ r^{2}+7 r +6 = 0 \] Solving for \(r\) gives the roots of the indicial equation as \begin {align*} r_1 &= -1\\ r_2 &= -6 \end {align*}

Since \(a_{0}\neq 0\) then the indicial equation becomes \[ \left (r^{2}+7 r +6\right ) x^{r} = 0 \] Solving for \(r\) gives the roots of the indicial equation as \([-1, -6]\).

Since \(r_1 - r_2 = 5\) is an integer, then we can construct two linearly independent solutions \begin {align*} y_{1}\left (x \right ) &= x^{r_{1}} \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}a_{n} x^{n}\right )\\ y_{2}\left (x \right ) &= C y_{1}\left (x \right ) \ln \left (x \right )+x^{r_{2}} \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n}\right ) \end {align*}

Or \begin {align*} y_{1}\left (x \right ) &= \frac {\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}a_{n} x^{n}}{x}\\ y_{2}\left (x \right ) &= C y_{1}\left (x \right ) \ln \left (x \right )+\frac {\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n}}{x^{6}} \end {align*}

Or \begin {align*} y_{1}\left (x \right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}a_{n} x^{n -1}\\ y_{2}\left (x \right ) &= C y_{1}\left (x \right ) \ln \left (x \right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n -6}\right ) \end {align*}

Where \(C\) above can be zero. We start by finding \(y_{1}\). Eq (2B) derived above is now used to find all \(a_{n}\) coefficients. The case \(n = 0\) is skipped since it was used to find the roots of the indicial equation. \(a_{0}\) is arbitrary and taken as \(a_{0} = 1\). For \(1\le n\) the recursive equation is \begin{equation} \tag{3} -2 a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) \left (n +r -2\right )+a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )-9 a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right )+8 a_{n} \left (n +r \right )+6 a_{n}-3 a_{n -1} = 0 \end{equation} Solving for \(a_{n}\) from recursive equation (4) gives \[ a_{n} = \frac {a_{n -1} \left (2 n^{2}+4 n r +2 r^{2}+3 n +3 r -2\right )}{n^{2}+2 n r +r^{2}+7 n +7 r +6}\tag {4} \] Which for the root \(r = -1\) becomes \[ a_{n} = \frac {a_{n -1} \left (2 n^{2}-n -3\right )}{n \left (n +5\right )}\tag {5} \] At this point, it is a good idea to keep track of \(a_{n}\) in a table both before substituting \(r = -1\) and after as more terms are found using the above recursive equation.

For \(n = 1\), using the above recursive equation gives \[ a_{1}=\frac {2 r^{2}+7 r +3}{r^{2}+9 r +14} \] Which for the root \(r = -1\) becomes \[ a_{1}=-{\frac {1}{3}} \] And the table now becomes

For \(n = 4\), using the above recursive equation gives \[ a_{4}=\frac {16 r^{5}+224 r^{4}+1112 r^{3}+2416 r^{2}+2217 r +630}{\left (r +10\right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (7+r \right ) \left (r +8\right )} \] Which for the root \(r = -1\) becomes \[ a_{4}=-{\frac {25}{1008}} \] And the table now becomes

\(a_{3}\) \(\frac {8 r^{4}+76 r^{3}+226 r^{2}+245 r +75}{\left (r +9\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (7+r \right ) \left (r +8\right )}\) \(-{\frac {1}{28}}\)
\(a_{4}\) \(\frac {16 r^{5}+224 r^{4}+1112 r^{3}+2416 r^{2}+2217 r +630}{\left (r +10\right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (7+r \right ) \left (r +8\right )}\) \(-{\frac {25}{1008}}\)

For \(n = 5\), using the above recursive equation gives \[ a_{5}=\frac {32 r^{5}+400 r^{4}+1840 r^{3}+3800 r^{2}+3378 r +945}{\left (r +11\right ) \left (r +8\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (r +10\right )} \] Which for the root \(r = -1\) becomes \[ a_{5}=-{\frac {1}{48}} \] And the table now becomes

\(n\) \(a_{n ,r}\) \(a_{n}\)
\(a_{0}\) \(1\) \(1\)
\(a_{1}\) \(\frac {2 r^{2}+7 r +3}{r^{2}+9 r +14}\) \(-{\frac {1}{3}}\)
\(a_{2}\) \(\frac {4 r^{3}+24 r^{2}+35 r +12}{\left (r +8\right ) \left (7+r \right ) \left (2+r \right )}\) \(-{\frac {1}{14}}\)
\(a_{3}\) \(\frac {8 r^{4}+76 r^{3}+226 r^{2}+245 r +75}{\left (r +9\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (7+r \right ) \left (r +8\right )}\) \(-{\frac {1}{28}}\)
\(a_{4}\) \(\frac {16 r^{5}+224 r^{4}+1112 r^{3}+2416 r^{2}+2217 r +630}{\left (r +10\right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (7+r \right ) \left (r +8\right )}\) \(-{\frac {25}{1008}}\)
\(a_{5}\) \(\frac {32 r^{5}+400 r^{4}+1840 r^{3}+3800 r^{2}+3378 r +945}{\left (r +11\right ) \left (r +8\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (r +10\right )}\) \(-{\frac {1}{48}}\)

Using the above table, then the solution \(y_{1}\left (x \right )\) is \begin {align*} y_{1}\left (x \right )&= \frac {1}{x} \left (a_{0}+a_{1} x +a_{2} x^{2}+a_{3} x^{3}+a_{4} x^{4}+a_{5} x^{5}+a_{6} x^{6}\dots \right ) \\ &= \frac {1-\frac {x}{3}-\frac {x^{2}}{14}-\frac {x^{3}}{28}-\frac {25 x^{4}}{1008}-\frac {x^{5}}{48}+O\left (x^{6}\right )}{x} \end {align*}

Now the second solution \(y_{2}\left (x \right )\) is found. Let \[ r_{1}-r_{2} = N \] Where \(N\) is positive integer which is the difference between the two roots. \(r_{1}\) is taken as the larger root. Hence for this problem we have \(N=5\). Now we need to determine if \(C\) is zero or not. This is done by finding \(\lim _{r\rightarrow r_{2}}a_{5}\left (r \right )\). If this limit exists, then \(C = 0\), else we need to keep the log term and \(C \neq 0\). The above table shows that \begin {align*} a_N &= a_{5} \\ &= \frac {32 r^{5}+400 r^{4}+1840 r^{3}+3800 r^{2}+3378 r +945}{\left (r +11\right ) \left (r +8\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (r +10\right )} \end {align*}

Therefore \begin {align*} \lim _{r\rightarrow r_{2}}\frac {32 r^{5}+400 r^{4}+1840 r^{3}+3800 r^{2}+3378 r +945}{\left (r +11\right ) \left (r +8\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (r +10\right )}&= \lim _{r\rightarrow -6}\frac {32 r^{5}+400 r^{4}+1840 r^{3}+3800 r^{2}+3378 r +945}{\left (r +11\right ) \left (r +8\right ) \left (2+r \right ) \left (r +9\right ) \left (r +10\right )}\\ &= {\frac {693}{32}} \end {align*}

The limit is \(\frac {693}{32}\). Since the limit exists then the log term is not needed and we can set \(C = 0\). Therefore the second solution has the form \begin {align*} y_{2}\left (x \right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n +r}\\ &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n -6} \end {align*}

Eq (3) derived above is used to find all \(b_{n}\) coefficients. The case \(n = 0\) is skipped since it was used to find the roots of the indicial equation. \(b_{0}\) is arbitrary and taken as \(b_{0} = 1\). For \(1\le n\) the recursive equation is \begin{equation} \tag{4} -2 b_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) \left (n +r -2\right )+b_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )-9 b_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right )+8 b_{n} \left (n +r \right )+6 b_{n}-3 b_{n -1} = 0 \end{equation} Which for for the root \(r = -6\) becomes \begin{equation} \tag{4A} -2 b_{n -1} \left (n -7\right ) \left (n -8\right )+b_{n} \left (n -6\right ) \left (n -7\right )-9 b_{n -1} \left (n -7\right )+8 b_{n} \left (n -6\right )+6 b_{n}-3 b_{n -1} = 0 \end{equation} Solving for \(b_{n}\) from the recursive equation (4) gives \[ b_{n} = \frac {b_{n -1} \left (2 n^{2}+4 n r +2 r^{2}+3 n +3 r -2\right )}{n^{2}+2 n r +r^{2}+7 n +7 r +6}\tag {5} \] Which for the root \(r = -6\) becomes \[ b_{n} = \frac {b_{n -1} \left (2 n^{2}-21 n +52\right )}{n^{2}-5 n}\tag {6} \] At this point, it is a good idea to keep track of \(b_{n}\) in a table both before substituting \(r = -6\) and after as more terms are found using the above recursive equation.

Using the above table, then the solution \(y_{2}\left (x \right )\) is \begin {align*} y_{2}\left (x \right )&= \frac {1}{x} \left (b_{0}+b_{1} x +b_{2} x^{2}+b_{3} x^{3}+b_{4} x^{4}+b_{5} x^{5}+b_{6} x^{6}\dots \right ) \\ &= \frac {1-\frac {33 x}{4}+\frac {99 x^{2}}{4}-\frac {231 x^{3}}{8}+\frac {693 x^{5}}{32}+O\left (x^{6}\right )}{x^{6}} \end {align*}

Therefore the homogeneous solution is \begin{align*} y_h(x) &= c_{1} y_{1}\left (x \right )+c_{2} y_{2}\left (x \right ) \\ &= \frac {c_{1} \left (1-\frac {x}{3}-\frac {x^{2}}{14}-\frac {x^{3}}{28}-\frac {25 x^{4}}{1008}-\frac {x^{5}}{48}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right )}{x} + \frac {c_{2} \left (1-\frac {33 x}{4}+\frac {99 x^{2}}{4}-\frac {231 x^{3}}{8}+\frac {693 x^{5}}{32}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right )}{x^{6}} \\ \end{align*} Hence the final solution is \begin{align*} y &= y_h \\ &= \frac {c_{1} \left (1-\frac {x}{3}-\frac {x^{2}}{14}-\frac {x^{3}}{28}-\frac {25 x^{4}}{1008}-\frac {x^{5}}{48}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right )}{x}+\frac {c_{2} \left (1-\frac {33 x}{4}+\frac {99 x^{2}}{4}-\frac {231 x^{3}}{8}+\frac {693 x^{5}}{32}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right )}{x^{6}} \\ \end{align*}

Summary
