Higher-Order Bessel Equations Integrable in Elementary Functions

详细

The eigenfunction problem for a scalar Euler operator leads to an ordinary differential equation, which is an analog of higher-order Bessel equations. Its solutions are expressed through elementary functions in the case where the corresponding Euler operator can be factorized in a certain appropriate way. We obtain a formula describing such solutions. We consider the problem on common eigenfunctions of two Euler operators and present commuting Euler operators of orders 4, 6, and 10 and a formula for their common eigenfunction and also commuting operators of orders 6 and 9.
