Evaluation of the Index and Singular Points of Linear Differential-Algebraic Equations of Higher Order

详细

We study linear systems of ordinary differential equations of higher order with an identically singular matrix at the higher derivative of the required vector-valued function in the domain of definition. We give definitions of the index and singular points for these systems, formulate the conditions of solvability, and deduce a formula for the general solution. The algorithms for finding the index and singular points are presented.
