Sections 7.5-7.7 deal with three distinct cases satisfying the assumptions introduced in Section 7.4. In all three cases, (A) has at least one solution of the form

y1=xr

∞

∑

n=0 anxn,

where r need not be an integer. The problem is that there are three possibilities - each requiring a different approach - for the form of a second solution y2 such that {y1,y2} is a fundamental pair of solutions of (A).

In this section we begin to study series solutions of a homogeneous linear second order differential equation with a regular singular point at x0=0, so it can be written as

x2A(x)y″+xB(x)y′+C(x)y=0,

where A, B, C are polynomials and A(0)≠0.

We’ll see that Equation 7.6.1 always has at least one solution of the form

y=xr

∑

n=0 anxn
