Hello, this is my first post so I am not familiar with how to write maths in here.
I have a third order ode of the form
y'''+A/y=0 where y=y(x) (A is just a constant) with well defined boundary conditions.
I believe there is no analytic solution to an ode of this form, but I can (by imposing a further condition) solve this numerically for y.
My question is this; I solve this numerically in Maple and one answer pops out. Is there any way I can easily prove this is the only real, non-negative solution?
