y , P , Q are analytic at the point 0xx = , then 0x is the ordinary point of the equation. (b) If the functions )(xP , )(xQ and )(xR are polynomials having no

common factors, the singular points of equation (1) are the points for which

0)( =xP (5)

Then the point 0xx = is called the REGULAR SINGULAR POINT of equation (3)

Page 7: mth 302- elementary differential equations ii

(d) Any singular point of equation (3) that is not regular singular point is called an irregular singular point.

4.0 Conclusion: In this unit we have attempted the series solution method to Ordinary Differential Equations. In the subsequent unit we are going to discuss more about this method in greater details. You are supposed to master this unit properly to be well equipped for the next unit. 5.0 Summary: Recall that in this unit we discuss power series and radius of convergence for the series. We also applied the series to solve differential equations. We derived the singular and ordinary points for each of the series solutions. Study this unit properly before going to the next unit.

)(xf in a series involving Sine function only. In order to get a Sine series for )(xf we introduced a function )(xg defined as follows

This class of differential equations is very useful for practical applications. We shall devote some time in studying them in this unit. 2.0 Objectives: At the end of this unit you should be able to

- classify second order differential equations into homogeneous and non-homogeneous.

- differentiate between eigen values and eigen functions - solve related eigen value problems

Sturm and Lioville Problems 4.0 Conclusion 5.0 Summary 6.0 Tutor Marked Assignment 7.0 References/ Further Readings 1.0. Introduction We solved some partial differential equations by the method of separation of variables. In the last step we expanded a certain function in a Fourier series, i.e. as the sum of an infinite series of sine and cosine functions. It is of fundamental importance that the eigen functions of a more general class of boundary values problems can be used as a basis for series expansions, which have properties similar to Fourier Series. Such eigen- functions series are useful in extending the method of separation of values to a larger class of problems in partial differential equation. The class of boundary value problem we will discuss is associated with the names of Sturm and Liouville. 2.0 Objectives: After studying this unit you should be able - to solve partial differential equation using Sturm and Liouville methods - solve correctly the associated Tutor Marked Assignments 3.0 MAIN CONTENT 3.1.

5.0 Summary Recall that Sturm Lioville problems are usually problems associated with eigen values problems of partial differential equations which we have dealt with in this unit. In our subsequent course in mathematics in this Programme, we will have cause to deal with it again particularly when will shall study Partial Differential Equation. 6.0 Tutor Marked Assignment
