Summary:: We want to find explicit functions ##g(y,t)## and ##f(y,t)## satisfying the following system of differential equations.
I attached a very similar solved example.
Given the following system of differential equations (assuming ##y \neq 0##)
\begin{equation*}
-y\partial_t \left( g(y,t)\right) + f(y,t) = 0 \tag{1}
\end{equation*}
\begin{equation*}
y\partial_y \left( f(y,t)\right) -f(y,t) = 0 \tag{2}
\end{equation*}
\begin{equation*}
\frac{1}{y^2} \partial_t \left( f(y,t) \right) - \partial_y \left( \frac{1}{y^2} g(y,t) \right) - \frac{2}{y^3} g(y,t) = 0 \tag{3}
\end{equation*}
We want to find explicit functions ##g(y,t)## and ##f(y,t)## satisfying such system
Adding up ##(1)## and ##(2)##
\begin{equation*}
\partial_y \left( f(y,t)\right) - \partial_t \left( g(y,t)\right) = 0 \tag{4}
\end{equation*}
Equation ##(4)## is satisfied when
\begin{equation*}
f(y,t) = f(t), \ \ \ \ g(y,t) = g(y) \tag{5}
\end{equation*}
Plugging ##(5)## into ##(3)## yields
\begin{equation*}
\partial_t f(t) - \partial_y g(y) =0 \tag{6}
\end{equation*}
But I do not see how ##(6)## is going to lead us to get explicit functions for ##g(y,t)## and ##f(y,t)##.
I actually expect to get a second order differential equation out of working out the system, whose solution should provide us with explicit functions for ##g(y,t)## and ##f(y,t)##.
Could you please help me out to move forward?
Thank you!
PS: I attach an analogous example. I am following the same procedure to solve our original problem
