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

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[_Riccati]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime }-f \left (x \right ) y^{2}=a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )} \]

19.5.1 Solving as riccati ode

In canonical form the ODE is \begin {align*} y' &= F(x,y)\\ &= f \left (x \right ) y^{2}+a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right ) \end {align*}

This is a Riccati ODE. Comparing the ODE to solve \[ y' = -a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )+f \left (x \right ) y^{2}+\frac {a n \,x^{n}}{x} \] With Riccati ODE standard form \[ y' = f_0(x)+ f_1(x)y+f_2(x)y^{2} \] Shows that \(f_0(x)=a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\), \(f_1(x)=0\) and \(f_2(x)=f \left (x \right )\). Let \begin {align*} y &= \frac {-u'}{f_2 u} \\ &= \frac {-u'}{f \left (x \right ) u} \tag {1} \end {align*}

Using the above substitution in the given ODE results (after some simplification)in a second order ODE to solve for \(u(x)\) which is \begin {align*} f_2 u''(x) -\left ( f_2' + f_1 f_2 \right ) u'(x) + f_2^2 f_0 u(x) &= 0 \tag {2} \end {align*}

But \begin {align*} f_2' &=f^{\prime }\left (x \right )\\ f_1 f_2 &=0\\ f_2^2 f_0 &=f \left (x \right )^{2} \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \end {align*}

Substituting the above terms back in equation (2) gives \begin {align*} f \left (x \right ) u^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) u^{\prime }\left (x \right )+f \left (x \right )^{2} \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) u \left (x \right ) &=0 \end {align*}

Solving the above ODE (this ode solved using Maple, not this program), gives

\[ u \left (x \right ) = \operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right )}{f \left (x \right )}+f \left (x \right ) \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right ) \] The above shows that \[ u^{\prime }\left (x \right ) = \frac {d}{d x}\operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right )}{f \left (x \right )}+f \left (x \right ) \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right ) \] Using the above in (1) gives the solution \[ y = -\frac {\frac {d}{d x}\operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right )}{f \left (x \right )}+f \left (x \right ) \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )}{f \left (x \right ) \operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right )}{f \left (x \right )}+f \left (x \right ) \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )} \] Dividing both numerator and denominator by \(c_{1}\) gives, after renaming the constant \(\frac {c_{2}}{c_{1}}=c_{3}\) the following solution

\[ y = -\frac {\frac {d}{d x}\operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right )}{f \left (x \right )}+f \left (x \right ) \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )}{f \left (x \right ) \operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\frac {-\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right ) x^{1+2 n} f \left (x \right )^{3} a^{2}+\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right ) x^{n} f \left (x \right )^{2} a n +\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right ) f \left (x \right ) x -f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x}{f \left (x \right ) x}\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )} \]

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= -\frac {\frac {d}{d x}\operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right )}{f \left (x \right )}+f \left (x \right ) \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )}{f \left (x \right ) \operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\frac {-\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right ) x^{1+2 n} f \left (x \right )^{3} a^{2}+\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right ) x^{n} f \left (x \right )^{2} a n +\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right ) f \left (x \right ) x -f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x}{f \left (x \right ) x}\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = -\frac {\frac {d}{d x}\operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right )}{f \left (x \right )}+f \left (x \right ) \left (a n \,x^{n -1}-a^{2} x^{2 n} f \left (x \right )\right ) \textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )}{f \left (x \right ) \operatorname {DESol}\left (\left \{\frac {-\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right ) x^{1+2 n} f \left (x \right )^{3} a^{2}+\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right ) x^{n} f \left (x \right )^{2} a n +\textit {\_Y}^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right ) f \left (x \right ) x -f^{\prime }\left (x \right ) \textit {\_Y}^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x}{f \left (x \right ) x}\right \}, \left \{\textit {\_Y} \left (x \right )\right \}\right )} \] Verified OK.
