Solve

\begin{align*} y^{\prime \prime }+y&=\frac {1}{x} \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.

\[ y^{\prime \prime }+y = 0 \]

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) &= 0\\ q(x) &= 1\\ \end{align*}
Table 2.121: Table \(p(x),q(x)\) singularites.
\(p(x)=0\)
singularity type
\(q(x)=1\)
singularity type

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

Regular singular points : \([]\)

Irregular singular points : \([\infty ]\)
