Sep 29, 2010 at 5:08 comment added Martin Rubey In case you need a package to play with, you may want to try FriCAS, and look at the routines seriesSolve (to obtain the first few coefficients), guessRec (to guess a recurrence) and guessADE (to guess a differential equation). Please email [email protected] or myself for more info.
Sep 29, 2010 at 3:26 comment added AUK1939 Thanks, I'm actually not concerned too much about the theory at the moment. I want to see how the recurrence relations turn out. I know these will be nonlinear but would like to get "comfortable" with them. If that makes any sense. I am staring at an example in a paper where the author applies series methods. Turns out he gets a cubic recurrence relation and intstead of substituting a power series with all powers of x, he substitutes a power series with odd values only, I was wondering why this is.
Sep 29, 2010 at 3:07 comment added Deane Yang Are you looking for more than a local existence and uniqueness theorem? If not, the statement and proof of the Cauchy-Kovalevski theorem for PDE's applies directly to a system of first order nonlinear ODE's. Any 2nd order nonlinear ODE can be "prolonged" into a system of first order nonlinear ODE's.
