Overview An Example Double Check

What is the Method of Frobenius?

1. The method of Frobenius works for differential equationsof the form y′′+P(x)y′+Q(x)y = 0 in which P or Q is notanalytic at the point of expansion x0.

2. But P and Q cannot be arbitrary: (x− x0)P(x) and(x− x0)2Q(x) must be analytic at x0.

3. Instead of a series solution y =∞

∑n=0

cn(x− x0)n, we obtain a

solution of the form y =∞

∑n=0

cn(x− x0)n+r.

4. The method of Frobenius is guaranteed to produce onesolution, but it may not produce two linearly independentsolutions.

What is the Method of Frobenius?

5. As for series solutions, we substitute the series and itsderivatives into the equation to obtain an equation for r anda set of equations for the cn.

6. These equations will allow us to compute r and the cn.7. For each value of r (typically there are two), we can

compute the solution just like for series.That’s it.

As before, for a correct approximation, low order terms shouldcancel.

We went to order143

for the first solution and to order133

forthe second solution.And, of course, we use a computer algebra system.
