1.11.1 Solving as second order ode missing y ode

This is second order ode with missing dependent variable \(y\). Let \begin {align*} p(x) &= y^{\prime } \end {align*}

Then \begin {align*} p'(x) &= y^{\prime \prime } \end {align*}

Hence the ode becomes \begin {align*} {p^{\prime }\left (x \right )}^{3} = 0 \end {align*}

Which is now solve for \(p(x)\) as first order ode. Solving the given ode for \(p^{\prime }\left (x \right )\) results in \(3\) differential equations to solve. Each one of these will generate a solution. The equations generated are \begin {align*} p^{\prime }\left (x \right )&=0 \tag {1} \\ p^{\prime }\left (x \right )&=0 \tag {2} \\ p^{\prime }\left (x \right )&=0 \tag {3} \end {align*}

Now each one of the above ODE is solved.

Solving equation (1)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} p \left (x \right ) &= \int { 0\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{1} \end {align*}

Solving equation (2)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} p \left (x \right ) &= \int { 0\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{2} \end {align*}

Solving equation (3)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} p \left (x \right ) &= \int { 0\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{3} \end {align*}

For solution (1) found earlier, since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then the new first order ode to solve is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = c_{1} \end {align*}

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { c_{1}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{1} x +c_{4} \end {align*}

Since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then the new first order ode to solve is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = c_{2} \end {align*}

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { c_{2}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{2} x +c_{5} \end {align*}

Since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then the new first order ode to solve is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = c_{3} \end {align*}

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { c_{3}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{3} x +c_{6} \end {align*}

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= c_{1} x +c_{4} \\ \tag{2} y &= c_{2} x +c_{5} \\ \tag{3} y &= c_{3} x +c_{6} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = c_{1} x +c_{4} \] Verified OK.

\[ y = c_{2} x +c_{5} \] Verified OK.

\[ y = c_{3} x +c_{6} \] Verified OK.

1.11.2 Solving as second order ode missing x ode

This is missing independent variable second order ode. Solved by reduction of order by using substitution which makes the dependent variable \(y\) an independent variable. Using \begin {align*} y' &= p(y) \end {align*}

Then \begin {align*} y'' &= \frac {dp}{dx}\\ &= \frac {dy}{dx} \frac {dp}{dy}\\ &= p \frac {dp}{dy} \end {align*}

Hence the ode becomes \begin {align*} p \left (y \right )^{3} \left (\frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )\right )^{3} = 0 \end {align*}

Which is now solved as first order ode for \(p(y)\). The ode \begin {align*} p \left (y \right )^{3} \left (\frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )\right )^{3} = 0 \end {align*}

Gives the following equations \begin {align*} p \left (y \right )^{3} = 0\tag {1} \\ \left (\frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )\right )^{3} = 0\tag {2} \\ \end {align*}

Each of the above equations is now solved.

Solving ODE (1) Since \(p \left (y \right )^{3} = 0\), is missing derivative in \(p\) then it is an algebraic equation. Solving for \(p \left (y \right )\). \begin {align*} \end {align*}

Solving ODE (2) Solving the given ode for \(\frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )\) results in \(3\) differential equations to solve. Each one of these will generate a solution. The equations generated are \begin {align*} \frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )&=0 \tag {1} \\ \frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )&=0 \tag {2} \\ \frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )&=0 \tag {3} \end {align*}

Now each one of the above ODE is solved.

Solving equation (1)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} p \left (y \right ) &= \int { 0\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}y}}\\ &= c_{1} \end {align*}

Solving equation (2)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} p \left (y \right ) &= \int { 0\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}y}}\\ &= c_{2} \end {align*}

Solving equation (3)

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} p \left (y \right ) &= \int { 0\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}y}}\\ &= c_{3} \end {align*}

For solution (1) found earlier, since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then we now have a new first order ode to solve which is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = c_{1} \end {align*}

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { c_{1}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{1} x +c_{4} \end {align*}

For solution (2) found earlier, since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then we now have a new first order ode to solve which is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = c_{2} \end {align*}

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { c_{2}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{2} x +c_{5} \end {align*}

For solution (3) found earlier, since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then we now have a new first order ode to solve which is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = c_{3} \end {align*}

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { c_{3}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= c_{3} x +c_{6} \end {align*}

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= c_{1} x +c_{4} \\ \tag{2} y &= c_{2} x +c_{5} \\ \tag{3} y &= c_{3} x +c_{6} \\ \end{align*}

\[ y = c_{2} x +c_{5} \] Verified OK.

\[ y = c_{3} x +c_{6} \] Verified OK.

1.11.3 Solving using Kovacic algorithm

Solving for \(y^{\prime \prime }\) from the ode gives \begin{align*} \tag{1} y^{\prime \prime } &= 0 \\ \end{align*} Now each ode is solved. Integrating twice gives the solution \[ y= c_{1} x + c_{2} \]

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= c_{1} x +c_{2} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = c_{1} x +c_{2} \] Verified OK.
