2 Higher Order Equations Higher Order Equations • Linear homogenous equation of order n . y ( n ) + a 1 y ( n − 1) + · · · + a n − 1 y ′ + a n y = 0 • Linear homogenous equation of second order. y ′′ + py ′ + qy = 0 • Equivalent system: x ′ = A x , where � y � 0 1 � � x = A = . and y ′ − q − p Return

3 Linear Independence Linear Independence • A fundamental set of solutions for the system consists of two linearly independent solutions. Two functions u ( t ) and v ( t ) are linearly Definition: independent if neither is a constant multiple of the other. • u ( t ) and v ( t ) are linearly independent solutions to � u � v � � y ′′ + py ′ + qy = 0 ⇔ & are linearly u ′ v ′ independent solutions to the equivalent system.

4 General Solution General Solution Suppose that y 1 ( t ) & y 2 ( t ) are linearly Theorem: independent solutions to the equation y ′′ + py ′ + qy = 0 .

6 Real Roots Real Roots • If λ is a root to the characteristic polynomial then y ( t ) = e λt is a solution. � If the characteristic polynomial has two distinct real roots λ 1 and λ 2 , then y ( 1 t ) = e λ 1 t and y 2 ( t ) = e λ 2 t are a fundamental set of solutions. • If λ is a root to the characteristic polynomial of multiplicity 2, then y 1 ( t ) = e λt and y 2 ( t ) = te λt are a fundamental set of solutions.
