consider the DE: y''+x2y'+x2y=0 about the ordinary point x=0
a) find the recurrence relation, and indicate if any of the coefficients are equal to zero .(if any)
b) use the recurrence relation to write the first four nonzero terms of each of the two linearly independent power series near the ordinary point x=0.
My attempt...
after plugging in the y, y' , and y'' power series. I got something that looked like
2a2+6a3x + sigma from n=2 -> to infinity of [an+2 (n+2)(n+1) + an-1 (n-1) + an-2] xn=0
but I feel it should be a three-term recurrence relation and not two like up there. can u help me? what did I do wrong? I can't seem to find any example online or anywhere on what to do when the y in the question has an x or x2.

In this exercise we consider the second order linear equation y" therefore has a power series solution in the form 4y = 0. This equation has an ordinary point at x = 0 and We learned how to easily solve problems like this in several different ways but here we want to consider the power series method (1) Insert the formal power series into the differential equation and derive the recurrence relation Cn-2 for n - 2, 3, NOTE co...
