Solve
\begin{align*} x^{2} \left (x^{2}-2 x +1\right ) y^{\prime \prime }-x \left (3+x \right ) y^{\prime }+\left (4+x \right ) y&=0 \end{align*}
Using series expansion around \(x=0\)
The type of the expansion point is first determined. This is done on the homogeneous part of
the ODE.
\[ \left (x^{4}-2 x^{3}+x^{2}\right ) y^{\prime \prime }+\left (-x^{2}-3 x \right ) y^{\prime }+\left (4+x \right ) y = 0 \]
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 {3+x}{x \left (x -1\right )^{2}}\\ q(x) &= \frac {4+x}{x^{2} \left (x -1\right )^{2}}\\ \end{align*}

Combining everything together gives the following summary of singularities for the ode
as
Regular singular points : \([0, \infty ]\)
Irregular singular points : \([1]\)
Since \(x = 0\) is regular singular point, then Frobenius power series is used. The ode is normalized to
be
\[ x^{2} \left (x^{2}-2 x +1\right ) y^{\prime \prime }+\left (-x^{2}-3 x \right ) y^{\prime }+\left (4+x \right ) y = 0 \]
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} x^{2} \left (x^{2}-2 x +1\right ) \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right ) a_{n} x^{n +r -2}\right )+\left (-x^{2}-3 x \right ) \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (n +r \right ) a_{n} x^{n +r -1}\right )+\left (4+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} \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}x^{n +r +2} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )\right )+\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 (-x^{1+n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right )+\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-3 x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}4 a_{n} x^{n +r}\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}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 }}x^{n +r +2} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =2}{\sum }}a_{n -2} \left (n +r -2\right ) \left (n -3+r \right ) x^{n +r} \\
\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 (-x^{1+n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}\left (-a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) x^{n +r}\right ) \\
\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}x^{1+n +r} a_{n} &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}a_{n -1} x^{n +r} \\
\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} \left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =2}{\sum }}a_{n -2} \left (n +r -2\right ) \left (n -3+r \right ) x^{n +r}\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 )+\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 (-a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right ) x^{n +r}\right )+\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}\left (-3 x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}4 a_{n} x^{n +r}\right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}a_{n -1} x^{n +r}\right ) = 0
\end{equation}
The indicial
equation is obtained from \(n = 0\). From Eq (2B) this gives
\[ x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right ) \left (n +r -1\right )-3 x^{n +r} a_{n} \left (n +r \right )+4 a_{n} x^{n +r} = 0 \]
When \(n = 0\) the above becomes
\[ x^{r} a_{0} r \left (-1+r \right )-3 x^{r} a_{0} r +4 a_{0} x^{r} = 0 \]
Or
\[ \left (x^{r} r \left (-1+r \right )-3 x^{r} r +4 x^{r}\right ) a_{0} = 0 \]
Since \(a_{0}\neq 0\) then the above simplifies to
\[ \left (r -2\right )^{2} x^{r} = 0 \]
Since the above is true for all \(x\) then the
indicial equation becomes
\[ \left (r -2\right )^{2} = 0 \]
Solving for \(r\) gives the roots of the indicial equation as
\begin{align*} r_1 &= 2\\ r_2 &= 2 \end{align*}
Since \(a_{0}\neq 0\) then the indicial equation becomes
\[ \left (r -2\right )^{2} x^{r} = 0 \]
Solving for \(r\) gives the roots of the indicial equation
as \([2, 2]\).
Since the root of the indicial equation is repeated, then we can construct two linearly
independent solutions. The first solution has the form
\begin{align*} y_{1}\left (x \right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}a_{n} x^{n +r}\tag {1A} \end{align*}
Now the second solution \(y_{2}\) is found using
\begin{align*} y_{2}\left (x \right ) &= y_{1}\left (x \right ) \ln \left (x \right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n +r}\right )\tag {1B} \end{align*}
Then the general solution will be
\[ y = c_1 y_{1}\left (x \right )+c_2 y_{2}\left (x \right ) \]
In Eq (1B) the sum starts from 1 and not zero. In Eq
(1A), \(a_{0}\) is never zero, and is arbitrary and is typically taken as \(a_{0} = 1\), and \(\{c_1, c_2\}\) are two arbitray
constants of integration which can be found from initial conditions. Using the value of the
indicial root found earlier, \(r = 2\), Eqs (1A,1B) become
\begin{align*} y_{1}\left (x \right ) &= \moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =0}{\sum }}a_{n} x^{n +2}\\ y_{2}\left (x \right ) &= y_{1}\left (x \right ) \ln \left (x \right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n +2}\right ) \end{align*}
We start by finding the first solution \(y_{1}\left (x \right )\). 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 \(a_{0} = 1\). Substituting \(n = 1\) in Eq. (2B) gives
\[ a_{1} = \frac {2 r +1}{-1+r} \]
For \(2\le n\) the recursive
equation is
\begin{equation}
\tag{3} a_{n -2} \left (n +r -2\right ) \left (n -3+r \right )-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 )-a_{n -1} \left (n +r -1\right )-3 a_{n} \left (n +r \right )+4 a_{n}+a_{n -1} = 0
\end{equation}
Solving for \(a_{n}\) from recursive equation (4) gives
\[ a_{n} = -\frac {n a_{n -2}-2 n a_{n -1}+r a_{n -2}-2 r a_{n -1}-3 a_{n -2}+a_{n -1}}{n +r -2}\tag {4} \]
Which for the root \(r = 2\)
becomes
\[ a_{n} = \frac {\left (-a_{n -2}+2 a_{n -1}\right ) n +a_{n -2}+3 a_{n -1}}{n}\tag {5} \]
At this point, it is a good idea to keep track of \(a_{n}\) in a table both before
substituting \(r = 2\) and after as more terms are found using the above recursive equation.

For \(n = 4\), using the above recursive equation gives
\[ a_{4}=\frac {5 r^{4}+80 r^{3}+321 r^{2}+384 r +68}{\left (2+r \right ) r \left (r^{2}-1\right )} \]

For \(n = 5\), using the above recursive equation gives
\[ a_{5}=\frac {6 r^{5}+155 r^{4}+1156 r^{3}+3295 r^{2}+3336 r +572}{r^{5}+5 r^{4}+5 r^{3}-5 r^{2}-6 r} \]
Which for the root \(r = 2\) becomes

| \(a_{5}\) |
\(\frac {6 r^{5}+155 r^{4}+1156 r^{3}+3295 r^{2}+3336 r +572}{r^{5}+5 r^{4}+5 r^{3}-5 r^{2}-6 r}\) |
\(\frac {4043}{15}\) |
| | |
Using the above table, then the first solution \(y_{1}\left (x \right )\) is
\begin{align*}
y_{1}\left (x \right )&= x^{2} \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 ) \\
&= x^{2} \left (17 x^{2}+5 x +1+\frac {143 x^{3}}{3}+\frac {355 x^{4}}{3}+\frac {4043 x^{5}}{15}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right ) \\
\end{align*}
Now the second solution is found. The
second solution is given by
\[ y_{2}\left (x \right ) = y_{1}\left (x \right ) \ln \left (x \right )+\left (\moverset {\infty }{\munderset {n =1}{\sum }}b_{n} x^{n +r}\right ) \]
Where \(b_{n}\) is found using
\[ b_{n} = \frac {d}{d r}a_{n ,r} \]
And the above is then evaluated at \(r = 2\). The
above table for \(a_{n ,r}\) is used for this purpose. Computing the derivatives gives the following table

| | | | |
| \(b_{4}\) |
\(\frac {5 r^{4}+80 r^{3}+321 r^{2}+384 r +68}{\left (2+r \right ) r \left (r^{2}-1\right )}\) |
\(\frac {355}{3}\) |
\(\frac {-70 r^{6}-652 r^{5}-1904 r^{4}-2128 r^{3}-666 r^{2}+136 r +136}{\left (2+r \right )^{2} r^{2} \left (r^{2}-1\right )^{2}}\) |
\(-{\frac {4693}{36}}\) |
| | | | |
| \(b_{5}\) |
\(\frac {6 r^{5}+155 r^{4}+1156 r^{3}+3295 r^{2}+3336 r +572}{r^{5}+5 r^{4}+5 r^{3}-5 r^{2}-6 r}\) |
\(\frac {4043}{15}\) |
\(\frac {-125 r^{8}-2252 r^{7}-14980 r^{6}-47988 r^{5}-77945 r^{4}-58672 r^{3}-11670 r^{2}+5720 r +3432}{r^{2} \left (r^{4}+5 r^{3}+5 r^{2}-5 r -6\right )^{2}}\) |
\(-{\frac {285181}{900}}\) |
| | | | |
The above table gives all values of \(b_{n}\) needed. Hence the second solution is
\begin{align*}
y_{2}\left (x \right )&=y_{1}\left (x \right ) \ln \left (x \right )+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 \\
&= x^{2} \left (17 x^{2}+5 x +1+\frac {143 x^{3}}{3}+\frac {355 x^{4}}{3}+\frac {4043 x^{5}}{15}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right ) \ln \left (x \right )+x^{2} \left (-3 x -\frac {29 x^{2}}{2}-\frac {859 x^{3}}{18}-\frac {4693 x^{4}}{36}-\frac {285181 x^{5}}{900}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right ) \\
\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 ) \\
&= c_1 \,x^{2} \left (17 x^{2}+5 x +1+\frac {143 x^{3}}{3}+\frac {355 x^{4}}{3}+\frac {4043 x^{5}}{15}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right ) + c_2 \left (x^{2} \left (17 x^{2}+5 x +1+\frac {143 x^{3}}{3}+\frac {355 x^{4}}{3}+\frac {4043 x^{5}}{15}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right ) \ln \left (x \right )+x^{2} \left (-3 x -\frac {29 x^{2}}{2}-\frac {859 x^{3}}{18}-\frac {4693 x^{4}}{36}-\frac {285181 x^{5}}{900}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right )\right ) \\
\end{align*}
Hence the final solution is
\begin{align*}
y &= y_h \\
&= c_1 \,x^{2} \left (17 x^{2}+5 x +1+\frac {143 x^{3}}{3}+\frac {355 x^{4}}{3}+\frac {4043 x^{5}}{15}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right )+c_2 \left (x^{2} \left (17 x^{2}+5 x +1+\frac {143 x^{3}}{3}+\frac {355 x^{4}}{3}+\frac {4043 x^{5}}{15}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right ) \ln \left (x \right )+x^{2} \left (-3 x -\frac {29 x^{2}}{2}-\frac {859 x^{3}}{18}-\frac {4693 x^{4}}{36}-\frac {285181 x^{5}}{900}+O\left (x^{6}\right )\right )\right ) \\
\end{align*}
