A method to tackle first-order ordinary differential equations with Liouvillian functions in the solution

Abstract: We present an algorithm to solve First Order Ordinary Differential Equations (FOODEs) extending the Prelle-Singer (PS) Method. The usual PS-approach miss many FOODEs presenting Liouvillian functions in the solution (LFOODEs). We point out why and propose an algorithm to solve a large class of these previously unsolved LFOODEs. Although our algorithm does not cover all the LFOODEs, it is an elegant extension mantaining the semi-decision nature of the usual PS-Method.

“…The classical result of the equivalence of the two representations of a Darbouxian first integral is proved in [30,13,17], [33,Satz 2], and in [34,Lemma 2 p. 205]. Singer [36] proves that a vector field admitting a first integral built by successive integrations, exponentiations and algebraic extensions of K(x, y) (so a Liouvillian function), also admits a Liouvillian first integral of the form given in Definition 1.…”

“…With this approach if D 0 has k Darboux polynomials and the bound on the degree of i f ei i is bigger than k then we have to study at least 2 k situations. In [2,16,17], in order to find a Liouvillian first integral, the authors compute a Darbouxian integrating factor R = e P/Q i f ci i . With our approach the integrating factor R is related to the equation (L) in the following way:…”

“…In our previous two works (Chandrasekar et al 2005(Chandrasekar et al , 2006, we have studied in some detail the extended modified Prelle-Singer (PS) procedure (Prelle & Singer 1983;Duarte et al 2002), so as to apply it to a class of second-and thirdorder nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and have solved several physically interesting nonlinear systems and identified a number of important linearization procedures. We now wish to extend the procedure to coupled ODEs.…”
