The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "higher_order_ODE_non_constant_coefficients_of_type_Euler"
Maple gives the following as the ode type
[[_3rd_order, _exact, _linear, _homogeneous]]
\[ \boxed {x^{3} y^{\prime \prime \prime }-x^{2} y^{\prime \prime }-2 y^{\prime } x +6 y=0} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \left (1\right ) = 0, y^{\prime }\left (1\right ) = 0, y^{\prime \prime }\left (1\right ) = 1] \end {align*}
This is Euler ODE of higher order. Let \(y = x^{\lambda }\). Hence \begin {align*} y^{\prime } &= \lambda \,x^{\lambda -1}\\ y^{\prime \prime } &= \lambda \left (\lambda -1\right ) x^{\lambda -2}\\ y^{\prime \prime \prime } &= \lambda \left (\lambda -1\right ) \left (\lambda -2\right ) x^{\lambda -3} \end {align*}
Substituting these back into \[ x^{3} y^{\prime \prime \prime }-x^{2} y^{\prime \prime }-2 y^{\prime } x +6 y = 0 \] gives \[ -2 x \lambda \,x^{\lambda -1}-x^{2} \lambda \left (\lambda -1\right ) x^{\lambda -2}+x^{3} \lambda \left (\lambda -1\right ) \left (\lambda -2\right ) x^{\lambda -3}+6 x^{\lambda } = 0 \] Which simplifies to \[ -2 \lambda \,x^{\lambda }-\lambda \left (\lambda -1\right ) x^{\lambda }+\lambda \left (\lambda -1\right ) \left (\lambda -2\right ) x^{\lambda }+6 x^{\lambda } = 0 \] And since \(x^{\lambda }\neq 0\) then dividing through by \(x^{\lambda }\), the above becomes
\[ -2 \lambda -\lambda \left (\lambda -1\right )+\lambda \left (\lambda -1\right ) \left (\lambda -2\right )+6 = 0 \] Simplifying gives the characteristic equation as \[ \lambda ^{3}-4 \lambda ^{2}+\lambda +6 = 0 \] Solving the above gives the following roots \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= 2\\ \lambda _2 &= 3\\ \lambda _3 &= -1 \end {align*}
This table summarises the result
root | multiplicity | type of root |
\(-1\) | \(1\) | real root |
\(2\) | \(1\) | real root |
\(3\) | \(1\) | real root |
The solution is generated by going over the above table. For each real root \(\lambda \) of multiplicity one generates a \(c_1x^{\lambda }\) basis solution. Each real root of multiplicty two, generates \(c_1x^{\lambda }\) and \(c_2x^{\lambda } \ln \left (x \right )\) basis solutions. Each real root of multiplicty three, generates \(c_1x^{\lambda }\) and \(c_2x^{\lambda } \ln \left (x \right )\) and \(c_3x^{\lambda } \ln \left (x \right )^{2}\) basis solutions, and so on. Each complex root \(\alpha \pm i \beta \) of multiplicity one generates \(x^{\alpha } \left (c_1\cos (\beta \ln \left (x \right ))+c_2\sin (\beta \ln \left (x \right ))\right )\) basis solutions. And each complex root \(\alpha \pm i \beta \) of multiplicity two generates \(\ln \left (x \right ) x^{\alpha }\left (c_1\cos (\beta \ln \left (x \right ))+c_2\sin (\beta \ln \left (x \right ))\right )\) basis solutions. And each complex root \(\alpha \pm i \beta \) of multiplicity three generates \(\ln \left (x \right )^{2} x^{\alpha }\left (c_1\cos (\beta \ln \left (x \right ))+c_2\sin (\beta \ln \left (x \right ))\right )\) basis solutions. And so on. Using the above show that the solution is
\[ y = \frac {c_{1}}{x}+c_{2} x^{2}+c_{3} x^{3} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin {align*} y_1 &= \frac {1}{x}\\ y_2 &= x^{2}\\ y_3 &= x^{3} \end {align*}
Initial conditions are used to solve for the constants of integration.
Looking at the above solution \begin {align*} y = \frac {c_{1}}{x}+c_{2} x^{2}+c_{3} x^{3} \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 \(x = 1\) in the above gives \begin {align*} 0 = c_{1} +c_{2} +c_{3}\tag {1A} \end {align*}
Taking derivative of the solution gives \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = -\frac {c_{1}}{x^{2}}+2 c_{2} x +3 c_{3} x^{2} \end {align*}
substituting \(y^{\prime } = 0\) and \(x = 1\) in the above gives \begin {align*} 0 = -c_{1} +2 c_{2} +3 c_{3}\tag {2A} \end {align*}
Taking two derivatives of the solution gives \begin {align*} y^{\prime \prime } = \frac {2 c_{1}}{x^{3}}+2 c_{2} +6 c_{3} x \end {align*}
substituting \(y^{\prime \prime } = 1\) and \(x = 1\) in the above gives \begin {align*} 1 = 2 c_{1} +2 c_{2} +6 c_{3}\tag {3A} \end {align*}
Equations {1A,2A,3A} are now solved for \(\{c_{1}, c_{2}, c_{3}\}\). Solving for the constants gives \begin {align*} c_{1}&={\frac {1}{12}}\\ c_{2}&=-{\frac {1}{3}}\\ c_{3}&={\frac {1}{4}} \end {align*}
Substituting these values back in above solution results in \begin {align*} y = \frac {3 x^{4}-4 x^{3}+1}{12 x} \end {align*}
Summary
The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= \frac {3 x^{4}-4 x^{3}+1}{12 x} \\ \end{align*}
Verification of solutions
\[ y = \frac {3 x^{4}-4 x^{3}+1}{12 x} \] Verified OK.
