The following are from the ,.econdgr ciup of problems. o Boas Ch.12, section 1, p. 564 \\,c solve the followirrg ODE fist using the power series n.rethod and then using a morc clernentarl' method to verify our solution: a "- 2 a ' + a : 0 ' (1) The starting I'oint is assuming the solution takes the form of a power series: {.2) Plugging this into (1) we obtain \-","-r,".,,-2 /-"'" \-r""""'r\-, m=2 i:2 ", -. 13 i=0 + L(a,,+,(m+ l)Qn+z) - 2a^a1(m t 1 )+ a " ) r - : 0 . (4) m-0 81. the linear ldependenceof the powers of r (in thc space of polynomials of r), the above equality implies tha,t for each rn, > 0, o ^ 1 2 ( m t 1 ) ( m + 2 ) - 2 a * . , 1 ( m* 1 ) + a * : 0 a* ^ -2o* t l )(rn | 2)' m-2 (m t a!8 (5) f6l The above recurrencerelation determinesthe solution for y(z), in terms of the initial choices o0 and a1. Since no boundary conditions are specified in the problem, we have gone as far a,swe ca.nrvith the power seriessohrtion. Next we solve the ODE using the elementary method outlined in Boas Ch. 8, section 5. \\'e write (1) a^s(D2 2D + 1.)y: 0 + (D - 1)(, - i)y : O. tt" generalsolution for such an equation is given bv Bon^sequation (5.15): (.7) aa"*(z):(Ar+B)e'. 1b vr:r'if1'tha,t this is consistent with our series solution, rve check that the power scries for thc abol.c (ana,lr.tic)solution does indeed saiisly the recurrence relation (6). ,!J"t.-\.r) - (A.r+ B)f - (8) I7 1 ! . . , l Lt ' - .
