New integrability case for the Riccati equation

Abstract: A new integrability condition of the Riccati equation dy/dx = a(x) + b(x)y + c(x)y 2 is presented. By introducing an auxiliary equation depending on a generating function f (x), the general solution of the Riccati equation can be obtained if the coefficients a(x), b(x), c(x), and the function f (x) satisfy a particular constraint. The validity and reliability of the method are tested by obtaining the general solutions of some Riccati type differential equations. Some applications of the integrability condition… Show more

“…Integrability condition for the Riccati equation has been studied by Mak and Harko and a new method to generate analytical solutions of the Riccati equation was presented [5]. Mortici gives a new method of the variation of constants which leads directly to an equation with separable variables.…”

“…Very recently, the isotropic pressure equation was reformulated as a Riccati equation. By using the general integrability condition for the Riccati equation proposed in Mak & Harko (2012, 2013a, an exact non-singular solution of the interior field equations for a fluid star expressed in the form of infinite series was obtained in Mak & Harko (2013b). The astrophysical analysis indicates that this power series solution can be used as a realistic model for static general relativistic high density objects, for example neutron stars.…”
