1 (6.1) -The Linear Shooting Method Consider the boundary value problems (BVPs) for the second order differential equation of the form (*) y fx,y,y, a x b, ya and yb. Under what conditions does a boundary value problem have a solution or has a unique solution? 1. Existence and Uniqueness of Solutions of BVPs: Theorem Suppose that f is continuous on the set D x,y,y ; a x b, y, y and the partial derivatives f y and f y are continuous on D. If f y x,y,y, for all x,y, y in D, and there exists a constant M such that f y x,y,y M for all x,y,y in D, then the boundary value problem (*) has a unique solution. Example Consider the following boundary value problem: y e xy siny, 1 x 2, y1 y2 Determine if the boundary value problem has a unique solution. Rewrite y e xy siny so fx,y,y e xy siny Check conditions: fx,y,y e xy siny, f y x,y,y xe xy,andf y x,y,y cosy are continuous on D x,y,y ; 1 x 2, y, y. (i) f y x,y,y xe xy ond. (ii) f y t,y,y cosy 1 M. So, the boundary value problem has a unique solution in D. Example Consider the linear boundary value problem of the form: y pxy qxy rx, a x b, ya, yb Under what condition(s) does a linear BVP have a unique solution? For the linear boundary value problem, fx,y,y pxy qxy rx. Observe that f y x,y,y qx, f y x,y,y px. f y x,y,y and f y x,y,y are continuous on D if and only if px, qx and rx are continuous for a x b. Now we check conditions in (i) and (ii). (i) f y x,y,y qx fora x b. (ii) Since f y is continuous on a, b, f y is bounded. So, if px, qx and rx are continuous for a x b, andqx fora x b, then this linear boundary value problem has a unique solution. 1

2 2. The Linear Shooting Method: Consider the linear boundary value problems of the form: y pxy qxy rx, a x b, ya, yb where px, qx and rx are continuous and qx fora x b. Consider the solutions of the following two initial-value problems: (i) y pxy qxy rx, a x b, ya, y a (**) (ii) y pxy qxy, a x b, ya, y a 1 say, y 1 x and y 2 x. Letyx be the following linear combination of y 1 x and y 2 x : yx y 1 x y 1b y 2 x y 2 b Then yx is the solution of the boundary value problem. Check: y x y 1 x y 1b y y 2 b 2 x pxy 1 x qxy 1 x rx y 1b pxy y 2 b 2 x qxy 2 x px y 1 x y 1b y y 2 b 2 x qx y 1 x y 1b y 2 x rx y 2 b So, yx is a solution of y pxy qxy rx. Check the boundary conditions: ya y 1 a y 1b y 2 a y 1b y 2 b y 2 b yb y 1 b y 1b y 2 b. y 2 b This suggests that a boundary value problem can be solved by solving two (independent) initial-value problems in (**). Review: Solve a second-order initial-value problem: y fx,y,y, ya, y a 1. Let y 1,and y 1. Then above second-order differential equation for y becomes the following system of two first-order differential equation in and : f 1 x,,, a x b, a, a 1. Example Set Rewrite the differential equation y 2y 4y te 2t as a system of 2 1st-order differential equations. y y y y 2y 4y te 2t 4 2 te 2t The system is: u te 2t te 2t 2

Note that it is a linear boundary value problem where px 4 x, qx 2 x, rx 2 2 x lnx 2 continuous on 1,2. Since qx, we cannot say if this boundary value problem has a unique solution. Now we solve the following two initial-value problems: 3
