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

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_high_order, _missing_x]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime \prime \prime }+\left (-3-i\right ) y^{\prime \prime \prime }+\left (4+3 i\right ) y^{\prime \prime }=0} \] The characteristic equation is \[ \lambda ^{4}-i \lambda ^{3}-3 \lambda ^{3}+3 i \lambda ^{2}+4 \lambda ^{2} = 0 \] The roots of the above equation are \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= 0\\ \lambda _2 &= 0\\ \lambda _3 &= 1+2 i\\ \lambda _4 &= 2-i \end {align*}

Therefore the homogeneous solution is \[ y_h(x)=c_{2} x +c_{1} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (1+2 i\right ) x} c_{3} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (2-i\right ) x} c_{4} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin {align*} y_1 &= 1\\ y_2 &= x\\ y_3 &= {\mathrm e}^{\left (1+2 i\right ) x}\\ y_4 &= {\mathrm e}^{\left (2-i\right ) x} \end {align*}

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= c_{2} x +c_{1} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (1+2 i\right ) x} c_{3} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (2-i\right ) x} c_{4} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = c_{2} x +c_{1} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (1+2 i\right ) x} c_{3} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (2-i\right ) x} c_{4} \] Verified OK.
