# Power series
|
|
A power series is defined by:
|
|
$$\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(X-X_{0})^n=a_{0}+a_{1}(x-x_{0})+a_{2}(x-x_{0})^2+\dots$$
|
|
It is convergent if:
|
|
$$\sum_{n=0} ^ \infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n<\infty \text{ at a given x}$$
|
|
Otherwise, it is divergent.
|
|
If $\sum_{n=0}^\infty \mid a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n\mid$ is convergent
|
|
$\implies\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n$ is absolutely convergent
|
|
Just because something is absolutely convergent doesn't mean it is conditionally convergent. think of the harmonic series. It is absolutely convergent but also divergent (conditionally divergent).
|
|
|
|
Theorem: With each $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n$ we can associate $0\leq \rho\leq \infty$ such that
|
|
$\sum_{n=0} ^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n$ is absolutely convergent
|
|
for all x such that $\mid x-x_{0}\mid<\rho$, divergent for all x where $\mid x-x_{0}\mid>\rho$

|
|
how can we find $\rho$?
|
|
Ratio test: If $\lim_{ n \to \infty }\mid \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_{n}}\mid=L$
|
|
then $\rho=\frac{1}{L}$
|
|
|
|
## Examples:
|
|
#ex
|
|
is this convergent? Divergent? and where so?
|
|
$\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{2^{-n}}{n+1}(x-1)^n$
|
|
determine the convergent set.
|
|
Use ratio test:
|
|
$\lim_{ n \to \infty }\mid \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_{n}}\mid=\lim_{ n \to \infty } \frac{2^{-(n+1)}}{n+2} \frac{n+1}{2^{-n}}=\frac{1}{2}\implies \rho=2$
|
|
so it's convergent on $-1<x<3$, divergent on $\mid x-1\mid>2$
|
|
But what about on the points $-1$ and $3$?
|
|
plug in $x_{0}=-1$
|
|
$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{2^{-n}}{n+1}(-2)^n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n}{n+1}<\infty$ <- That is the alternating harmonic series, it is convergent.
|
|
plug in $x_{0}=3$:
|
|
$\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{2^{-n}}{n+1}2^n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{1}{n+1}>\infty$ <- harmonic series, this diverges.
|
|
so the power series is convergent on $[-1,3)$ divergent otherwise.
|
|
$$\text{ converges only on: } [-1,3)$$
|
|
|
|
Assume that $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n$ and $\sum_{n=0}^\infty b_{n}(x-x_{0})^n$ are converget with $\rho>0$
|
|
Then:
|
|
1.) $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n+\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}b_{n}(x-x_{0})^n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty(a_{n}+b_{n})(x-x_{0})^n$
|
|
That has a radius of convergence of at least $\rho$.
|
|
2.) $\left( \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n \right)\left( \sum_{n=0}^\infty b_{n}(x-x_{0})^n \right) \qquad c_n=\sum_{k=0}^n a_{k}b_{n-k}$(Cauchy)
|
|
$=(a_{0}+a_{1}(x-x_{0})+a_{2}(x-x_{0})^2+\dots)(b_{0}+b_{1}(x-x_{0})+b_{2}(x-x_{0})^2+\dots)$
|
|
$=a_{0}b_{0}+(a_{0}b_{1}+a_{1}b_{0})(x-x_{0})+(a_{0}b_{2}+a_{1}b_{1}+a_{2}b_{1})(x-x_{0})^2+\dots$ (Cauchy multiplication)
|
|
|
|
more Definitions of power series:
|
|
If $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n$ is convergent with $\rho>0$
|
|
$\mid x-x_{0}\mid<\rho$
|
|
we can differentiate this infinite sum and get:
|
|
$\implies y'(x)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_{n}n(x-x_{0})^{n-1}$
|
|
$y''(x)=\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n}n(n-1)(x-x_{0})^{n-2}$
|
|
|
|
Theorem: If $y(x)$ is infinitely many times differentiable on some interval: $\mid x-x_{0}\mid<\rho$
|
|
then: $\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{y^{(n)}(x_{0})}{n!}(x-x_{0})^n$ (Taylor series)
|
|
"believe me, taylor series is the most important theorem in engineering."
|
|
"I mean engineering is all about approximations, do you know how your calculator computes ...? Taylor series!"
|
|
"Applied mathematics is all about approximating and then measuring how good your approximation is, it's what engineering is all about." -Prof (loosy quotes, can't keep up with how enthusiastic he is!)
|
|
|
|
Definition: If $y(x)$ can be represented with a power series on $\mid x-x_{0}\mid$ then $y(x)$ is an analytic function on $(x_{0}-\rho,x_{0}+\rho)$
|
|
btw analytic functions are very important in complex calculus MATH301. (i don't have that next term)
|
|
|
|
$f(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n<\infty$
|
|
$f'(x)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_{n}n(x-x_{0})^{n-1}$
|
|
$f(x)+f'(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n+\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_{n}n(x-x_{0})^{n-1}$
|
|
let $n-1=k$
|
|
$=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n+\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{n}(k+1)(x-x_{0})^{k}$
|
|
$=\sum_{n=0}^\infty(a_{n}+a_{n}(n+1))(x-x_{0})^n$
|
|
|
|
Last theorem fo' da day:
|
|
If $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}(x-x_{0})^n=0$ for all x$\in(x_{0}-\rho,x_{0}+\rho)$ where $\rho>0$
|
|
$\implies a_{n}=0$, $n=0,1,2,\dots$

Mid terms are almost done being marked!

|
## Examples
|
|
Let's start using power series to start solving DE!
|
|
No magic formulas we need to memorize when solving equations using power series (Yay!)
|
|
#ex
|
|
$$y'-2xy=0 \qquad x_{0}=0$$
|
|
note this is separable and linear, so we can already solve this. This time we do it with power series
|
|
y should be an analytic function (meaning, infinitely many times differentiable)
|
|
so we should expect we can represent it as a power series
|
|
$y(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}x^n$
|
|
$y'(x)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_{n}nx^{n-1}$
|
|
plug these into the equation:
|
|
$\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_{n}nx^{n-1}-\sum_{n=0}^\infty 2a_{n}x^{n+1}=0$
|
|
if the entire interval is zero, we should expect all the coefficients to equal 0
|
|
we need to combine the summations.
|
|
shift the index!
|
|
$k=n-1,\ k=n+1$
|
|
$\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{k+1}(k+1)x^{k}-\sum_{k=1}^\infty 2a_{k-1}x^k=0$
|
|
|
|
|
|
$a_{1}+\sum_{k=1}^\infty (\underbrace{ a_{k+1}(k+1)-2a_{k-1} }_{ =0 })x^k=0$
|
|
The whole series equals zerro,
|
|
so $a_{1}=0$ is the first observation
|
|
second observation:
|
|
$a_{k+1}=\frac{2}{k+1}a_{k-1}$ where $k=1,2,3,\dots$ This is called a recursive relation. (if we know one index we can produce some other index recursively)
|
|
from this equation:
|
|
$a_{1}, a_{3}, a_{5}, \dots=0$
|
|
$a_{2k+1}=0, k=0,1,2,\dots$
|
|
this means half of our power series disappears!
|
|
what happens with the other half?
|
|
$a_{2}$ is related to $a_{0}$ from the above formula
|
|
$a_{2}=\frac{2}{2}a_{0}$ ($k=1$)
|
|
$a_{4}=\frac{2}{3+1}a_{2}=\frac{a_{0}}{2}$ ($k=2$)
|
|
$a_{6}=\frac{2}{5+1} \frac{a_{0}}{2}=\frac{a_{0}}{6}$ ($k=3$)
|
|
$a_{8}=\frac{1}{4} \frac{a_{0}}{6}=\frac{a_{0}}{24}$ ($k=4$)
|
|
you might start noticing a factorial-y pattern:
|
|
$a_{2k}=\frac{1}{k!}a_{0}$ where $k=0,1,2,\dots$
|
|
|
|
$y(x)=a_{0}\sum_{k=0} ^\infty \frac{1}{k!}x^{2k}=a_{0}\sum_{k=0} ^\infty \frac{1}{k!}(x^2)^k$
|
|
Does this look like something from math 101?
|
|
Yes! it looks like the taylor series of $e^{x^2}$
|
|
so:
|
|
$$y(x)=a_{0}e^{x^2}$$

|
|
#ex
|
|
$$z''-x^2z'-xz=0 \qquad \text{about } x_{0}=0$$
|
|
using regular methods will be problematic,
|
|
if you use laplace transform you will have problems as well.
|
|
>"you try the simplest thing you know, if you know anything :D" (referring to answering a question about how do we know what method to use?)
|
|
|
|
lets use power series:
|
|
assume solution is analytic:
|
|
$z(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}nx^{n-1}$
|
|
$z''(x)=\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n}n(n-1)x^{n-2}$
|
|
$\underset{ n-2=k }{ \sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n}n(n-1)x^{n-2} }-\underset{ n+1=k }{ \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_{n} nx^{n+1} }-\underset{ n+1=k }{ \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_{n}x^{n+1} }=0$
|
|
|
|
shift the index to equalize the powers.

|
|
|
|
$\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{k+2}(k+2)(k+1)x^k-\sum_{k=2}^\infty a_{k-1}x^k-\sum_{k=1}^\infty a_{k-1}x^k=0$
|
|
$2a_{2}+6a_{3}+\sum_{k=2}^\infty a_{k+2}(k+2)(k+1)x^k-\sum_{k=2}^\infty a_{k-1}(k-1)x^k-a_{0}x-\sum_{k=2}^\infty a_{k-1}x^k=0$
|
|
$6a_{2}+(6a_{3}-a_{0})x+\sum_{k=2}^\infty (a_{k+2}(k+1)(k+2)-a_{k-1}k)x^k=0$
|
|
$a_{2}=0 \qquad a_{3}=\frac{a_{0}}{6}$
|
|
$a_{k+2}=\frac{k}{(k+1)(k+2)}a_{k-1}$ where $k=2,3,4,\dots$
|
|
Finally, a recursive relation!
|
|
it should be clear that each step of 3 starting from $a_{2}$ should all equal 0.
|
|
$a_{2}, a_{5}, a_{8}, \dots=0$
|
|
$a_{3k-1}=0$ where $k=1,2,\dots$
|
|
$a_{4}=\frac{2}{3\cdot 4}a_{1}$
|
|
$a_{7}=\frac{5}{6\cdot 7} \frac{2}{3\cdot 4}a_{1}$
|
|
realize if we multiply here by 5 and 2:
|
|
$a_{7}=\frac{5^2}{5\cdot6\cdot 7} \frac{2^2}{2\cdot3\cdot 4}a_{1}$
|
|
$a_{7}=\frac{(2\\dot{c} 5)^2}{7!}a_{1}$
|
|
$a_{4}=\frac{2^2}{4!}a_{1}$
|
|
the pattern leads us to:
|
|
$a_{3k+1}=\frac{(2\cdot 5 \dots(3k-1))^2}{(3k+1)!}$ where k=1,2,3, ...
|
|
$a_{3k}=\frac{(1\cdot 4\cdot \dots(3k-2))^2}{(3k)!}a_{0}$ k=1,2,...
|
|
$z(x)=a_{0}\left( 1+\sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{(1*4*\dots(3k-2))^2}{(3k)!}x^{3k} \right)$
|
|
$a_{1}\left( x+\sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{(2\cdot 5\cdot \dots(3k-1))^2}{(3k+1)!} x^{3k+1}\right)$
|
|
there we go, $z$ is a linear combination of those two expressions
|
