Power series expansion
Not what you're looking for?
a) Give the first few terms in the power series expansion (up to the fourth power) of the solution of the initial value problem:
y' = e^x + x cos y , y(0) =0.
b) Determine first terms in the power series expansion y =[summation ]a(k)x^k for the solution to the initial value problem :
y' = x^3 + y^3 , y(0) = 1.
Determine the power series expansion of the solution u = [summation] b(k) x^k of
u' = u^3 , u(0) = 1 and show that a(k) >= b(k).
