The second-order equation
Yk+2 – Yk+1 – k²yk = 0
(3.159)
can be written in the following factored form:
(E + k)(E – k)yk = 0.
(3.160)
Note that
(E – k)(E+ k)Yk
= Yk+2 + Yk+1 – k“yk,
(3.161)
-
which shows that the order of the factors is important.
To solve equation (3.160), let
21(k) = (E – k)Yk;
(3.162)
therefore, equation (3.160) becomes
(E + k)z1(k) = 0,
(3.163)
which has the solution
21 (k) = A(-1)*(k – 1)!,
(3.164)
where A is an arbitrary function. We now have
(E – k)yk = A(-1)* (k – 1)!,
(3.165)

or
Yk+1 – kyr = A(-1)* (k – 1)!.
