3.5.1
Example A
Assume that we know that one solution of the equation
Yk+2 – k(k + 1)yk = 0
(3.146)
LINEAR DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS
103
(1)
is y
From equation (3.146), we see that
(k – 1)!. We wish to find a second linearly independent solution.
Ik
-k(k + 1).
(3.147)
Substitution of this into equations (3.111) and (3.113) gives
(2)
Yk
' = (-1)*(k – 1)!.
(3.148)
Therefore, the general solution to equation (3.146) is
Yk = [C1 + c2(-1)*](k – 1)!,
(3.149)
where c1 and c2 are arbitrary constants. Note that the Casoratian is
C(k) = (-1)*+1[(k – 1)!]²(2k),
(3.150)
(1)
(2)
thus showing that y and y are linearly independent.
