TL;DR: The reducibility and factorization of linear homogeneous differential equations are of great theoretical and practical importance and their use in an automatic differential equation solver requires a more detailed analysis of the various steps involved.
Abstract: The reducibility and factorization of linear homogeneous differential equations are of great theoretical and practical importance in mathematics. Although it has been known for a long time that factorization is in principle a decision procedure, its use in an automatic differential equation solver requires a more detailed analysis of the various steps involved. Especially important are certain auxiliary equations, the so-called associated equations. An upper bound for the degree of its coefficients is derived. Another important ingredient is the computation of optimal estimates for the size of polynomial and rational solutions of certain differential equations with rational coefficients. Applying these results, the design of the factorization algorithm LODEF and its implementation in the Scratchpad II Computer Algebra System is described.

TL;DR: The proposed arithmetic mean method for solving numerically large sparse sets of linear ordinary differential equations has second-order accuracy in time and is stable and has been tested on the CRAY X-MP/48 utilizing two CPUs.
Abstract: This paper is concerned with the development, analysis and implementation on a computer consisting of two vector processors of the arithmetic mean method for solving numerically large sparse sets of linear ordinary differential equations. This method has second-order accuracy in time and is stable. The special class of differential equations that arise in solving the diffusion problem by the method of lines is considered. In this case, the proposed method has been tested on the CRAY X-MP/48 utilizing two CPUs. The numerical results are largely in keeping with the theory; a speedup factor of nearly two is obtained.

In particular, generalizations of the Hermite, Laguerre, Legendre, and Chebyshev equations are given for which such solutions exist. These solutions turn out to be generalizations of well‐known polynomials and enjoy similar properties.

Abstract: Many engineering problems can be reduced to the solution of a variable coefficient differential equation. In this paper, the exact analytic method is suggested to solve variable coefficient differential equations under arbitrary boundary condition. By this method, the general computation format is obtained. Its convergence is proved. We can get analytic expressions which converge to exact solution and its higher order derivatives unifornuy. Four numerical examples are given, which indicate that satisfactory results can be obtained by this method.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first integrals of some classes of non-linear equations of the form y + p(t)y + q(t), n ≠ 1 are derived by a direct and simple procedure, where the choice of integrating factors depends on the constraints for certain solutions of the same equation.
Abstract: The first integrals of some classes of non-linear equations of the form y + p(t)y + q(t)y = ƒ(t)yn, n ≠ 1 are derived by a direct and simple procedure. It is shown that the choice of integrating factors depends on the constraints for certain solutions of the same equation. Several known results in the literature are deduced as particular cases. Further, some differential equations involving quadratic non-linearities are discussed. The sufficient conditions for the class of equations y + p(t) y + q(t)y = − y 2 y −1 + ƒ(t)y −1 to be completely integrable and the corresponding integrals are also derived. A few illustrative examples are discussed.
