The Chebyshev differential equation is - (1 x)y" xy' + ay = 0, where a is constant. Since x = 0 is an ordinary

The Chebyshev differential equation is - (1 x)y" xy' + ay = 0, where a is constant. Since x = 0 is an ordinary point, the equation has two linearly independent solutions that are analytic at x = 0 and therefore have power series 8 solutions y = 0 anx". Use this to: (a) Find the recurrence relation an+2 = (n-a)OH ESOS HATED BM 1, ., an for n=0,1 (8) alls buil (1) aotsapano (n+2) (n + 1) lot and lo 1) 200 and use this to construct the two solutions y and y2.
