Solve

$$\begin{array}{rl}{x}^2{y}^{\prime \prime }+(x^2+6x)y^{\prime }+xy& =0\end{array}$$

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.

$$x^2{y}^{\prime \prime }+(x^2+6x)y^{\prime }+xy=0$$

The following is summary of singularities for the above ode. Writing the ode as

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}^{\prime \prime }+p(x)y^{\prime }+q(x)y& =0\end{array}$$

Where

$$\begin{array}{rl}p(x)& =\frac{x+6}{x}\\ q(x)& =\frac{1}{x}\end{array}$$

Table 2.104: Table $p(x),q(x)$ singularites.

$p(x)=\frac{x+6}{x}$
singularity	type
$x=0$	$\text{“regular”}$

$q(x)=\frac{1}{x}$
singularity	type
$x=0$	$\text{“regular”}$

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

Regular singular points : $[0]$

Irregular singular points : $[\mathrm{\infty }]$

Since $x=0$ is regular singular point, then Frobenius power series is used. The ode is normalized to be

$$x^2{y}^{\prime \prime }+(x^2+6x)y^{\prime }+xy=0$$

Let the solution be represented as Frobenius power series of the form

$$y=\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{a}_n{x}^{n+r}$$

Then

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}^{\prime }& =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}(n+r)a_n{x}^{n+r-1}\\ y^{\prime \prime }& =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}(n+r)(n+r-1)a_n{x}^{n+r-2}\end{array}$$

Substituting the above back into the ode gives

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(1)}& x^2(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}(n+r)(n+r-1)a_n{x}^{n+r-2})+(x^2+6x)(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}(n+r)a_n{x}^{n+r-1})+x(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{a}_n{x}^{n+r})=0\end{array}$$

Which simplifies to

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(2A)}& (\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{x}^{n+r}{a}_n(n+r)(n+r-1))+(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{x}^{1+n+r}{a}_n(n+r))+(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}6x^{n+r}{a}_n(n+r))+(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{x}^{1+n+r}{a}_n)=0\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{rl}\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{x}^{1+n+r}{a}_n(n+r)& =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=1}}{a}_{n-1}(n+r-1)x^{n+r}\\ \stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{x}^{1+n+r}{a}_n& =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=1}}{a}_{n-1}{x}^{n+r}\end{array}$$

Substituting all the above in Eq (2A) gives the following equation where now all powers of $x$ are the same and equal to $n+r$.

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(2B)}& (\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{x}^{n+r}{a}_n(n+r)(n+r-1))+(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=1}}{a}_{n-1}(n+r-1)x^{n+r})+(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}6x^{n+r}{a}_n(n+r))+(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=1}}{a}_{n-1}{x}^{n+r})=0\end{array}$$

The indicial equation is obtained from $n=0$. From Eq (2B) this gives

$$x^{n+r}{a}_n(n+r)(n+r-1)+6x^{n+r}{a}_n(n+r)=0$$

When $n=0$ the above becomes

$$x^r{a}_{0}r(-1+r)+6x^r{a}_{0}r=0$$

Or

$$(x^{r}r(-1+r)+6x^{r}r)a_0=0$$

Since $a_0\ne 0$ then the above simplifies to

$$x^{r}r(5+r)=0$$

Since the above is true for all $x$ then the indicial equation becomes

$$r(5+r)=0$$

Solving for $r$ gives the roots of the indicial equation as

$$\begin{array}{rl}{r}_1& =0\\ r_2& =-5\end{array}$$

Since $a_0\ne 0$ then the indicial equation becomes

$$x^{r}r(5+r)=0$$

Solving for $r$ gives the roots of the indicial equation as $[0,-5]$.

Since $r_1-r_2=5$ is an integer, then we can construct two linearly independent solutions

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}_1\left(x\right)& =x^{r_1}(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{a}_n{x}^n)\\ y_2\left(x\right)& =C{y}_1\left(x\right)\ln \left(x\right)+x^{r_2}(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{b}_n{x}^n)\end{array}$$

Or

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}_1\left(x\right)& =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{a}_n{x}^n\\ y_2\left(x\right)& =C{y}_1\left(x\right)\ln \left(x\right)+\frac{\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{b}_n{x}^n}{x^5}\end{array}$$

Or

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}_1\left(x\right)& =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{a}_n{x}^n\\ y_2\left(x\right)& =C{y}_1\left(x\right)\ln \left(x\right)+(\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{b}_n{x}^{n-5})\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(3)}& a_n(n+r)(n+r-1)+a_{n-1}(n+r-1)+6a_n(n+r)+a_{n-1}=0\end{array}$$

Solving for $a_n$ from recursive equation (4) gives

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(4)}& a_n=-\frac{a_{n-1}}{n+5+r}\end{array}$$

Which for the root $r=0$ becomes

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(5)}& a_n=-\frac{a_{n-1}}{n+5}\end{array}$$

At this point, it is a good idea to keep track of $a_n$ in a table both before substituting $r=0$ and after as more terms are found using the above recursive equation.

$n$	$a_{n,r}$	$a_n$
$a_0$	$1$	$1$

For $n=1$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$a_1=-\frac{1}{6+r}$$

Which for the root $r=0$ becomes

$$a_1=-\frac{1}{6}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$a_{n,r}$	$a_n$
$a_0$	$1$	$1$
$a_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$

For $n=2$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$a_2=\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=0$ becomes

$$a_2=\frac{1}{42}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$a_{n,r}$	$a_n$
$a_0$	$1$	$1$
$a_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$
$a_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{42}$

For $n=3$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$a_3=-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=0$ becomes

$$a_3=-\frac{1}{336}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$a_{n,r}$	$a_n$
$a_0$	$1$	$1$
$a_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$
$a_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{42}$
$a_3$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{336}$

For $n=4$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$a_4=\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=0$ becomes

$$a_4=\frac{1}{3024}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$a_{n,r}$	$a_n$
$a_0$	$1$	$1$
$a_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$
$a_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{42}$
$a_3$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{336}$
$a_4$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)}$	$\frac{1}{3024}$

For $n=5$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$a_5=-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)(10+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=0$ becomes

$$a_5=-\frac{1}{30240}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$a_{n,r}$	$a_n$
$a_0$	$1$	$1$
$a_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$
$a_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{42}$
$a_3$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{336}$
$a_4$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)}$	$\frac{1}{3024}$
$a_5$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)(10+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{30240}$

Using the above table, then the solution $y_1\left(x\right)$ is

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}_1\left(x\right)& =a_0+a_{1}x+a_2{x}^2+a_3{x}^3+a_4{x}^4+a_5{x}^5+a_6{x}^6\dots \\ & =1-\frac{x}{6}+\frac{x^2}{42}-\frac{x^3}{336}+\frac{x^4}{3024}-\frac{x^5}{30240}+O\left(x^6\right)\end{array}$$

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 $\underset{r\to r_2}{lim}{a}_5\left(r\right)$. If this limit exists, then $C=0$, else we need to keep the log term and $C\ne 0$. The above table shows that

$$\begin{array}{rl}{a}_N& =a_5\\ & =-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)(10+r)}\end{array}$$

Therefore

$$\begin{array}{rl}\underset{r\to r_2}{lim}-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)(10+r)}& =\underset{r\to -5}{lim}-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)(10+r)}\\ & =-\frac{1}{120}\end{array}$$

The limit is $-\frac{1}{120}$. Since the limit exists then the log term is not needed and we can set $C=0$. Therefore the second solution has the form

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}_2\left(x\right)& =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{b}_n{x}^{n+r}\\ & =\stackrel{\mathrm{\infty }}{\sum _{n=0}}{b}_n{x}^{n-5}\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(4)}& b_n(n+r)(n+r-1)+b_{n-1}(n+r-1)+6b_n(n+r)+b_{n-1}=0\end{array}$$

Which for for the root $r=-5$ becomes

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(4A)}& b_n(n-5)(n-6)+b_{n-1}(n-6)+6b_n(n-5)+b_{n-1}=0\end{array}$$

Solving for $b_n$ from the recursive equation (4) gives

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(5)}& b_n=-\frac{b_{n-1}}{n+5+r}\end{array}$$

Which for the root $r=-5$ becomes

$$\begin{array}{}\text{(6)}& b_n=-\frac{b_{n-1}}{n}\end{array}$$

At this point, it is a good idea to keep track of $b_n$ in a table both before substituting $r=-5$ and after as more terms are found using the above recursive equation.

$n$	$b_{n,r}$	$b_n$
$b_0$	$1$	$1$

For $n=1$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$b_1=-\frac{1}{6+r}$$

Which for the root $r=-5$ becomes

$$b_1=-1$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$b_{n,r}$	$b_n$
$b_0$	$1$	$1$
$b_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-1$

For $n=2$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$b_2=\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=-5$ becomes

$$b_2=\frac{1}{2}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$b_{n,r}$	$b_n$
$b_0$	$1$	$1$
$b_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-1$
$b_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{2}$

For $n=3$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$b_3=-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=-5$ becomes

$$b_3=-\frac{1}{6}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$b_{n,r}$	$b_n$
$b_0$	$1$	$1$
$b_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-1$
$b_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{2}$
$b_3$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$

For $n=4$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$b_4=\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=-5$ becomes

$$b_4=\frac{1}{24}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$b_{n,r}$	$b_n$
$b_0$	$1$	$1$
$b_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-1$
$b_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{2}$
$b_3$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$
$b_4$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)}$	$\frac{1}{24}$

For $n=5$, using the above recursive equation gives

$$b_5=-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)(10+r)}$$

Which for the root $r=-5$ becomes

$$b_5=-\frac{1}{120}$$

And the table now becomes

$n$	$b_{n,r}$	$b_n$
$b_0$	$1$	$1$
$b_1$	$-\frac{1}{6+r}$	$-1$
$b_2$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)}$	$\frac{1}{2}$
$b_3$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{6}$
$b_4$	$\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)}$	$\frac{1}{24}$
$b_5$	$-\frac{1}{(6+r)(7+r)(8+r)(9+r)(10+r)}$	$-\frac{1}{120}$

Using the above table, then the solution $y_2\left(x\right)$ is

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}_2\left(x\right)& =1(b_0+b_{1}x+b_2{x}^2+b_3{x}^3+b_4{x}^4+b_5{x}^5+b_6{x}^6\dots )\\ & =\frac{1-x+\frac{x^2}{2}-\frac{x^3}{6}+\frac{x^4}{24}-\frac{x^5}{120}+O\left(x^6\right)}{x^5}\end{array}$$

Therefore the homogeneous solution is

$$\begin{array}{rl}{y}_h(x)& =c_1{y}_1\left(x\right)+c_2{y}_2\left(x\right)\\ & =c_1(1-\frac{x}{6}+\frac{x^2}{42}-\frac{x^3}{336}+\frac{x^4}{3024}-\frac{x^5}{30240}+O\left(x^6\right))+\frac{c_2(1-x+\frac{x^2}{2}-\frac{x^3}{6}+\frac{x^4}{24}-\frac{x^5}{120}+O\left(x^6\right))}{x^5}\end{array}$$

Hence the final solution is

$$\begin{array}{rl}y& =y_h\\ & =c_1(1-\frac{x}{6}+\frac{x^2}{42}-\frac{x^3}{336}+\frac{x^4}{3024}-\frac{x^5}{30240}+O\left(x^6\right))+\frac{c_2(1-x+\frac{x^2}{2}-\frac{x^3}{6}+\frac{x^4}{24}-\frac{x^5}{120}+O\left(x^6\right))}{x^5}\end{array}$$
