Ordinary Differential Equations I Lecture (5) First Order Differential Equations

The given differential equation is a Riccati differential equation. Suppose a particular solution y1(x) is known. Making the substitution y = y1(x) + 1/v(x) in the Riccati equation, and simplifying results in a linear differential equation of the form dv/dx + p(x)v = Q(x), where p(x) and Q(x) are functions of x. Therefore, the given substitution transforms the Riccati differential equation into a linear differential equation.

7. Riccati Equations
The equation
𝑑𝑦
+ 𝑝(𝑥)𝑦 + 𝑄(𝑥)𝑦 2 = 𝐹(𝑥)
𝑑𝑥

Is known as Riccati equation.


Use of Particular Solutions to Construct the General Solution
Suppose that some particular solution 𝑦1 of this equation is known.
𝑑𝑦1
⇒ + 𝑝(𝑥)𝑦1 + 𝑄(𝑥)(𝑦1 )2 = 𝐹(𝑥)
𝑑𝑥

A more general solution containing one arbitrary constant can be obtained through the
substitution
𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑦1 𝑑𝑣
𝑦 = 𝑦1 (𝑥) + 𝑣(𝑥) ⇒ = +
𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥

So, we have
𝑑𝑦1 𝑑𝑣
[ + ] + 𝑝(𝑥)[𝑦1 (𝑥) + 𝑣(𝑥)] + 𝑄(𝑥)[𝑦1 (𝑥) + 𝑣(𝑥)]2 = 𝐹(𝑥)
𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥

𝑑𝑦1 𝑑𝑣
[ + 𝑝(𝑥)𝑦1 + 𝑄(𝑥)(𝑦1 )2 ] + + [𝑝(𝑥) + 𝑦1 (𝑥)𝑄(𝑥)]𝑣 + 𝑄(𝑥)𝑣 2 = 𝐹(𝑥)
𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥
𝑑𝑣
𝐹(𝑥) + + [𝑝(𝑥) + 𝑦1 (𝑥)𝑄(𝑥)]𝑣 + 𝑄(𝑥)𝑣 2 = 𝐹(𝑥)
𝑑𝑥
𝑑𝑣
+ [𝑝(𝑥) + 𝑦1 (𝑥)𝑄(𝑥)]𝑣 + 𝑄(𝑥)𝑣 2 = 0 is Bernoulli equation.
𝑑𝑥

Note:
𝑑𝑦
1. If 𝑄(𝑥) = 0, The Riccati equation reduces to a linear first order equation (𝑑𝑥 + 𝑝(𝑥)𝑦 = 𝐹(𝑥)).
𝑑𝑦
2. If 𝐹(𝑥) = 0, The Riccati equation reduces to a Bernoulli equation (𝑑𝑥 + 𝑝(𝑥)𝑦 + 𝑄(𝑥)𝑦 2 = 0).
