2. Solutions.
A functional relation between the dependent variable y and the indepen-
dent variable x that satisfies the given ODE in some interval J is called a
solution of the given ODE on J.
A first order ODE may be written as
F (x, y, y 0 ) = 0. (1.1.4)
y 2 (1 + [y 0 ]2 ) − 1 = 0.
3. Integral curves.
The solutions of an ODE
y 0 = f (x, y) 1.1.7
Example 1. y 0 = 1 + y.
Change of variable
In many cases, a change of variable is needed in order to transform the
equation into a separable equation. For example, the equation y 0 = f ( xy )
can be reduced to a separable equation by letting u = xy , i.e. y = xu. So
f (u) = y 0 = u + xu0 ,
du dx
= .
f (u) − u x
Example. (1) 2xyy 0 + x2 − y 2 = 0. Ans: x2 + y 2 = cx.

1. Exact equations.
We can write a first order ODE in the follow form
u(x, y) = c.
Theorem 1.1 Assume M and N together with their first partial deriva-
tives are continuous in the rectangle S: |x − x0 | < a, |y − y0 | < b. A
necessary and sufficient condition for (1.2.1) to be exact is
∂M ∂N
= in S. 1.2.2
∂y ∂x
When (1.2.2) is satisfied, a general solution of (1.2.1) is given by u(x, y) = c,
where
Z x Z y
u(x, y) = M (s, y)ds + N (x0 , t)dt 1.2.3
x0 y0
and c is an arbitrary constant.
Example(y 2 + x)dy + (x2 + y)dx = 0.

2. Integrating factors.
A non-zero function µ(x, y) is an integrating factor of (1.2.1) if the equiv-
alent differential equation
is exact.
If µ is an integrating factor of (1.2.1) then (µM )y = (µN )x , that is,
N µx − M µy = µ(My − Nx ). 1.2.5
One may look for an integrating factor of the form µ = µ(v), where v is
a known function of x and y. Plugging into (1.2.5) we find
1 dµ My − Nx
= . 1.2.6
µ dv N vx − M vy
My −Nx
If N vx −M vy is a function of v, say, φ(v), then
R
φ(v)dv
µ=e
My −Nx My −Nx
(*) In particular, if N is a function of x, say, φ1 (x), i.e., N = φ1 (x),
R
φ1 (x)dx
then e is an integrating factor of (1.2.1).
y 0 + p(x)y = 0, 1.3.1
2. Bernoulli equation.
An ODE in the form
3. Riccati equation.
An ODE of the form
is called Riccati equation. The functions P (x), Q(x), R(x) are continuous
on an interval J. In general, a Riccati equation can not be solved by a
sequence of integrations. However, if a particular solution is known, then
(1.3.7) can be reduced to a linear equation, and thus is solvable.
If P (x) = 0, then it is Bernoulli!
Exampley 0 = y/x + x3 y 2 − x5 . Key step: observe y = x is a solution.
Let y = x = z.

1. Method of differentiation.
Consider an equations solvable in y:
y = f (x, y 0 ). 1.4.2
2. Method of parameterization.
This method can be used to solve equations where either x or y is missing.
Consider
F (y, y 0 ) = 0, 1.4.5
where x is missing. Let p = y 0 and write (1.4.5) as
F (y, p) = 0.
F (x, y 0 ) = 0,
where y is missing.

3. Reduction of order.
Consider the equation
F (x, y 0 , y 00 ) = 0, 1.4.6
where y is missing. Let p = y 0 . Then y 00 = p0 . Write (1.4.6) as
F (x, p, p0 ) = 0. 1.4.7
