The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "higher_order_linear_constant_coefficients_ODE"

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_high_order, _missing_x]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime \prime \prime }+12 y^{\prime \prime }+36 y=0} \] The characteristic equation is \[ \lambda ^{4}+12 \lambda ^{2}+36 = 0 \] The roots of the above equation are \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= i \sqrt {6}\\ \lambda _2 &= -i \sqrt {6}\\ \lambda _3 &= i \sqrt {6}\\ \lambda _4 &= -i \sqrt {6} \end {align*}

Therefore the homogeneous solution is \[ y_h(x)={\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{1} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{3} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{4} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin {align*} y_1 &= {\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x}\\ y_2 &= x \,{\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x}\\ y_3 &= {\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x}\\ y_4 &= x \,{\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x} \end {align*}

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= {\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{1} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{3} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{4} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = {\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{1} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{3} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{-i \sqrt {6}\, x} c_{4} \] Verified OK.
