Get started for freeFor Problems 1 to 4, find one (simple) solution of each differential equation by series, and then find the second solution by the "reduction of order" method, Chapter 8, Section 7 (e).
Verify the recursion relationsas follows:
a) DifferentiateWith respect toto get equate coefficients ofrole="math" localid="1654857725406"
b) Differentiate with respect to to get equate coefficients of
c) Combine (a) and (b) to get . Substitute the series for and equate coefficients of
Use the Section 15 recursion relations and (17.4) to obtain the following recursion relations for spherical Bessel functions. We have written them for, but they are valid forand for the ,.
Solve the differential equations in Problems 5 to 10 by the Frobenius method; observe that you get only one solution. (Note, also, that the two values of are equal or differ by an integer, and in the latter case the larger gives the one solution.) Show that the conditions of Fuchs's theorem are satisfied. Knowing that the second solution is X times the solution you have, plus another Frobenius series, find the second solution.
Prove as follows:
Write Bessel's equation (12.1) with and with ; multiply the equation by and the equation by and subtract to get . Then . To find , use equation for each of the four functions and pick out the terms in the products.
