The chapter one gives a brief introduction of differential equations and elaborates various methods to solve the ordinary differential equations of first order. The second chapter named’* General Linear Differential Equations’ explains how to solve the differential equations of higher order and the methods to find their general, particular and. singular solutions. In Chapter three, the solutions of initial value problems are being explained by using Lipschitz condition and by general methods. italso explains Green's function and Sturm Liouvill's problem which gives non-trivial solutions of a boundary value problem. The fourth chapter introduces the partial differential equations and various kind of methods to solve them. Chapter five includes the behaviours of second order differential equations and the transformation to reduce them into the canonical form. Apart from this, the solutions of Heat and Laplace equations are also discussed. ooo ‘The practice sets are introduced at the end of the topics which includes a variety of questions from previous year papers of CSIR UGC NET, IIT-JAM, TIFR, NBHM and GATE. These questions are carefully selected so that the stuidénts can apply mathernatical kriowiledge in solving the questions. In addition to it, the solved examples are also given at the end of every chapter which will help in deep understanding of the topics discussed. The key points provides the quick revision of every chapter. Also, a well-thought question bank, in the form of various assignments is given at the end of each chapter which covers entire prescribed topics, so as to facilitate students to do more and more practice and hence secure good results. While compiling this book, more stress is given on problem solving technique rather than language or exact mathematical symbols. Any suggestions for the improvement of the book will be highly appreciated. Di AP.

DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION: addy a An enon 9.22 ar #0, which expresses ‘a relation between dependent and independent variables and their derivatives of any order, is called a differential equation. We may aio define it as, “An equation involving unknown functions and their derivatives w.r.t. one or more independent variables". an) * x3 fi x ay ¢ #y +ur-0 ame ee Settee pay y (vy) —=2tx— wi) 2S axty ae ay = EO ay? There are two types of differential equations: () Ordinary (ii) Partial DEFINITIONS: (Ordinary Differential Equation: An ordinary differential equation is the equation which involves one independent variable and differential co-efficients w.r.t. it. Thus (i) to (iv) are ardinary differential equations, (i) Partial Differential Equation: A partial differential equation is the equation which involves two or more independent variables and partial derivatives w.r.t any of them. Thus (v) and.(vi) are partial differential equations Order of Differential Equation: The order of a differential equation is the: order of. the highest derivative it contains. In the above examples the order of (i) anid (i) is 1, the order of (ii) is 2, the order of (iv) is 3 (iv) Degree of differential equation: The degree of the differential equation, which can be writien as a polynomial in the derivatives is the degree of the highest ordered derivative which then occzrs. eg. 2Y= Eee a This differential equation is of degree 2 (obtained by making it free from fractions) 7 , () General Forms, An ordinary differential equation of order one is of the form f x,y, al =0. \ 2, |= 0, etc. Jn general, an An ordinary differential equation of order two is of the form A geese l x dy d’y .d'y 2 Ys 2-0 ordinary differential equation of order’ n is of the form sax ix DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS CHAPTER HEY Ys ¥I=O. § 1.2. LINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION A differential equation ix y, > |=0 is said to be linear if the function fis a linear function of the variables 3, 7 “, i.e, iff the dependent variables and its derivatives occur in the first degree and are not multiplied together.

Example 1. Obtain the differential equation of all circles of radius r. ‘Solution: The equation of the family of circles of radius r is (x — a)" + (y=b" =", ... () where a and b are arbitrary constants, Since equation (i) contains two arbitrary ‘constants, we differentiate it two times wrt, x and the differential equation will be of second order. Differentiating (i) w.rt. x, we get 2c-a)+267-b) a 0 Sa) 2 0 offi) 2 5 Differentiating (i) w.r-t. x, we get 1 + (y—b) 2¥. + (2 0 (iti) a x? Lox) ? DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS CHAPTER } §13 @ wi ti ) § 14.

Substituting the values of (a) and (y~ b) in (i), we get ial lel This isthe required differential equation. ‘TYPES OF SOLUTIONS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS Solution, The solution of a differential equation isa relation between the variables involved such that this relation and differential co-efficients obtained from there satisfy the given differential equation. This is also called primitive or integral of the differential equation General Solution. The solution of a differential equation. which contains as many arbitrary constants as the order of the differential equation, is said to be general solution, This is also called complete primitive or coniplete solution of the differertial equation. 2, eg. the general solution ft +y=Oisy=c,cosx+c,sinx. i Particular Solution. The particular solution ofa differential equation is that which is obtained from the general solution by giving particular values to arbitrary constants. 2 eg. the particular solution 6 4y=0isy = cosx x Singular Solution. A solution which canriot be derived from the general solution by giving particular values t0 the arbitrary constants and has no arbitrary constant is called singular solution EQUATIONS OF FIRST ORDER AND FIRST DEGREE.

When the complementary solution of (I) is known or can be found, we proceed as under: The corresponding homogeneaus equation is y" + Ry’ + Sy = 0 = Let y= cu + cv be the general solution of (2) and hence the complementary solution of (1) where u, v are linearly independent functions of x over an interval, say I. Let us seek a particular solution of (I) by considering y = Au + Bv 3) where A, B are functions of x, and determine the functions A, B so that (3) is a solution. of (I). Differentiating (3) w.r.t. x, we get-y’ = Au’ + Bv'+ Ate + BYv 4) Now, instead of being involved in the derivatives of order higher than one of the functions A and B, we ‘choose some particular functions of A'u * BY.
