# Goals * Use eigenvalues and eigenvectors to solve systems of ODEs. <br/><br/> * Use the Wronskian to test for linear independence. <br/><br/> --- # Conventions for Systems of ODEs > In what follows we will deal with systems of two equations with two unknown functions whose ODEs are linear with constant coefficients. This is described in the general form `$$\begin{array}{c} x'= a_{11}x+a_{22}y+f_1(t) \\ y'=a_{21}x+a_{22}y+f_2(t) \end{array}$$` where `\(a_{ij}\)` are constants and `\(f_1(t)\)` and `\(f_2(t)\)` are functions of `\(t.\)` --- # Solving for Homogeneous systems > Given the system `$$X'=AX$$` consider the matrix `\(A.\)` Suppose that `\((\lambda,v)\)` is an eigenvalue-eigenvector pair of `\(A\)` and assume that `\(\lambda\)` is real. Let `\(F=e^{\lambda t}v\)` be a vector of functions, then the vector `\(F\)` is a solution vector of the system. --- #### Example: > Consider the system `$$X'=AX$$` where `$$A=\left(\begin{array}{cc} 3 & 1 \\ 0 & -3 \end{array}\right).$$` Find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of `\(A\)` and construct the general solution. --- #### Example: > Consider the system `$$X'=\left(\begin{array}{cc} 1 & 2 \\ -2 & -3 \end{array}\right) X.$$` Find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of `\(A\)` and construct the general solution. --- ## Test for linear independence > __Definition:__ Consider the solution function vectors `\(X_1\)` and `\(X_2\)` for a system of ODEs. The __Wronskian__ of the solutions is the determinant of the matrix `$$\left(\begin{array}{cc} x_1 & x_2 \\ y_1 & y_2\end{array}\right)$$` and is denoted by `\(W(X_1,X_2).\)` <br/><br/> > __Theorem [Abel's]:__ The solutions `\(X_1\)` y `\(X_2\)` are __linearly independents__ if `$$W(X_1,X_2)\neq 0.$$` --- ## Solution for Systems of ODEs > __Method of Eigenfunctions:__ For the system `\(X'=AX.\)` 1. Find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of `\(A.\)` * If the eigenvalues are real and distinct, then the general solution `$$X_1=e^{\lambda_1}v_1\mbox{ and } X_2=e^{\lambda_2}v_2.$$` * If the eigenvalues are real and repeated, then the general solution `$$X_1=e^{\lambda}v_1\mbox{ and } X_2=te^{\lambda}v_2.$$` * If the eigenvalues are complex conjugated, then the general solution `$$X_1=e^{\alpha t}\left(\cos(\beta t)v_1+\sin(\beta t)v_2\right)\mbox{ and } X_2=e^{\alpha t}\left(\cos(\beta t)v_1-\sin(\beta t)v_2\right).$$` 2. Express the general solution as `$$X=c_1 X_1+c_2 X_2.$$` 3. If there are initial conditions, use them to find the constants `\(c_1\)` and `\(c_2.\)` --- #### Example 1: Find the general solution for `\(X'=AX\)` if `\(A=\left(\begin{array}{cc} 1 & 2 \\ 4 & 3 \end{array}\right).\)` <br/><br/> * `\(A=\left(\begin{array}{cc} -4 & 2 \\ -\frac{5}{2} & 2 \end{array}\right).\)` <br/><br/> --- #### Example 2: Find the general solution for `\(X'=AX\)` if `\(A=\left(\begin{array}{cc} 10 & -5 \\ 8 & -12 \end{array}\right).\)` <br/><br/> --- #### Example 3: Find the general solution for `\(A=\left(\begin{array}{cc} 3 & -1 \\ 9 & -3 \end{array}\right).\)` <br/><br/> ---
