Remark.
1 We often see the equation P(t)y 00 + Q(t)y 0 + G (t)y = R(t). Of
course, if P(t) 6= 0, we can divide this Eq. by P(t) and thereby obtain
Eq. (1) with p(t) = Q(t) G (t) R(t)
P(t) , q(t) = P(t) , r (t) = P(t) .

2.3 Definition
The Wronski Determinant (or Wronskian) of the two solutions y1 and y2
y1 y2
of Eq. (2) is defined by W (y1 , y2 ) = 0 = y1 y 0 − y 0 y2 .
y1 y20 2 1
y2 = t t2
dt = t 2 + 1 for |t| > 1. Therefore, the general solution
of given equation is y = c1 t + c2 (t 2 + 1).
