Solving Abel's ODEs of the Second Kind, Class A

 

Description

Examples

Description

• 

The general form of Abel's equation, second kind, class A is given by:

Abel_ode2A := (y(x)+g(x))*diff(y(x),x)=f2(x)*y(x)^2+f1(x)*y(x)+f0(x);

Abel_ode2Ayx+gxⅆⅆxyx=f2xyx2+f1xyx+f0x

(1)
  

where f2(x), f1(x), f0(x), and g(x) are arbitrary functions. See Differentialgleichungen, by E. Kamke, p. 26. There is as yet no general solution for this ODE.

• 

Note that all ODEs of type Abel, second kind, can be rewritten as ODEs of type Abel, first kind, as explained in ?odeadvisor,Abel2C

1) f0(x) = f1(x)*g(x)-f2(x)*g(x)^2

odeevalsubsf0x=f1xgxf2xgx2,Abel_ode2A

odeyx+gxⅆⅆxyx=f2xyx2+f1xyx+gxf1xf2xgx2

(4)

This case can be solved as follows:

dsolveode,yx

yx=gx,yx=ⅇf2xⅆxf2xgxf1xⅆx+c__1ⅇf2xⅆx

(5)

2) Another case which can be solved:

f1(x) = 2*f2(x)*g(x)-diff(g(x),x)

odeevalsubsf1x=2f2xgxdiffgx,x,Abel_ode2A

odeyx+gxⅆⅆxyx=f2xyx2+2f2xgxⅆⅆxgxyx+f0x

(6)

Although the answer for this case can be obtained using standard methods (an integrating factor is easily found), the use of symmetry methods can provide an explicit solution. The infinitesimals for this case are given by

symgenode,yx

_ξ=0,_η=ⅇ2f2xⅆxy+gx

(7)

To indicate the use of symmetry methods "at first", we can explicitly indicate an integration method (see dsolve); for instance, to use the canonical coordinates of the invariance group:

ansdsolveode,yx,can

ansyx=ⅇ2f2xⅆxgx+ⅇ2f2xⅆx2gx2+2ⅇ2f2xⅆxf0xⅇf2xⅆx2ⅆx+2ⅇ2f2xⅆxc__1ⅇ2f2xⅆx,yx=ⅇ2f2xⅆxgx+ⅇ2f2xⅆx2gx2+2ⅇ2f2xⅆxf0xⅇf2xⅆx2ⅆx+2ⅇ2f2xⅆxc__1ⅇ2f2xⅆx
