Hello
I have the following problem:
I must show that the Bessel function of order n\in Z

J_n(x)=\int_{-\pi}^\pi e^{ix\sin\vartheta}e^{-in\vartheta}\mathrm{d}\vartheta

is a solution of the Bessel differential equation

x^2\frac{d^2f}{dx^2}+x\frac{df}{dx}+(x^2-n^2)f=0

Would be very thankful for some help :-)

well the first 2 summands equal 0 (i hope I've calculated this correctly) but its more a problem with the third one. how can i show that this will also become 0?
 
Let's call your right-hand-side F(x)
Then: what do you get for F'(x) and F''(x)
 
Hello,
I'd like to know how to solve the ODE shown in the attached file using Bessel functions

I will be very grateful!

Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
