High Order Differential Equations –
General Theory
• An nth order ODE has the general form
• We assume that P0,…, Pn, and G are continuous real-valued functions on some interval I = (, ), and that Pn is nowhere zero on I.
• Dividing by Pn, the ODE becomes
• For an nth order ODE, there are typically n initial conditions:

Theorem 4.1.1
• Consider the nth order initial value problem
• If the functions p1,…, pn, and g are continuous on an open interval I,
• then there exists exactly one solution y = (t) that satisfies the initial value problem. This solution exists throughout the interval I.

High Order Differential Equations –
Homogeneous Equation
• As with 2nd order case, we begin with homogeneous ODE:
• If y1,…, yn are solns to ODE, then so is linear combination
• Every solution can be expressed in this form, with coefficients determined by initial conditions, if we can solve:

High Order Differential Equations –
Homogeneous Equation & Wronskian
• The system of equations on the previous slide has a unique solution if its determinant, or Wronskian, is nonzero at t0:
• Since t0 can be any point in the interval I, the Wronskian determinant needs to be nonzero at every point in I.
• As before, it turns out that the Wronskian is either zero for every point in I, or it is never zero on I.

Theorem 4.1.3
• If {y1,…, yn} is a fundamental set of solutions of
on an interval I,
• then {y1,…, yn} are linearly independent on that interval.
• if {y1,…, yn} are linearly independent solutions to the above
differential equation,
• then they form a fundamental set of solutions on the interval I

High Order Differential Equations –
Nonhomogeneous Equation
• Consider the nonhomogeneous equation:
• If Y1, Y2 are solutions to nonhomogeneous equation, then Y1 - Y2 is a solution to the homogeneous equation:
• Then there exist coefficients c1,…, cn such that
• Thus the general solution to the nonhomogeneous ODE is
where Y is any particular solution to nonhomogeneous ODE.

High Order Differential Equations –
Homogeneous Equation with Constant Coefficients
• Consider the nth order linear homogeneous differential equation with constant, real coefficients:
• As with second order linear equations with constant coefficients, y = ert is a solution for values of r that make characteristic polynomial Z(r) zero:
• By the fundamental theorem of algebra, a polynomial of degree n has n roots r1, r2, …, rn, and hence
