If a set of ODEs has a particular form, then the Picard method can be used to find their solution in the form of a power series. If the ODEs do not have the required form, it is nearly always possible to find an expanded set of equations that do have the required form, such that a subset of the solution is a solution of the original ODEs.
where is a function : [,), and the initial condition is a given vector. First-order means that only the first derivative of y appears in the equation, and higher derivatives are absent. Without loss of generality to higher-order systems, we restrict ourselves to first-order differential equations, because a higher-order ODE can be converted ...

Some ODEs can be solved explicitly in terms of known functions and integrals. When that is not possible, the equation for computing the Taylor series of the solutions may be useful. For applied problems, numerical methods for ordinary differential equations can supply an approximation of the solution.
The idea of Rosenbrock search is also used to initialize some root-finding routines, such as fzero (based on Brent's method) in Matlab. Rosenbrock search is a form of derivative-free search but may perform better on functions with sharp ridges. [6] The method often identifies such a ridge which, in many applications, leads to a solution. [7]
Consider the general, homogeneous, second-order linear constant coefficient ordinary differential equation. (ODE) ″ + ′ + =, where ,, are real non-zero coefficients. . Two linearly independent solutions for this ODE can be straightforwardly found using characteristic equations except for the case when the discriminant, , vanish
Vivian Health examines five trends that could redefine nurses' roles, enhance patient care, and alter the entire healthcare system in 2025 and beyond.
In Itô calculus, the Euler–Maruyama method (also simply called the Euler method) is a method for the approximate numerical solution of a stochastic differential equation (SDE).
