Find the fundamental set of solutions to the equation



$$xy'' + y' + y = 0$$



Express the functions in terms of power series.




I have found the general solution to be



$$a_n+1 = frac-a_n (n + 1)^2$$



However, I am having trouble finding the fundamental set of solutions.
Thank you.

    You have a regular singular point at $x=0$ so you should use the Method of Frobenius.

    I think the minus one factor has to be retained inside the product, or else pulled out as a power of minus one; please check. In any case the Question itself is not explicit in identifying terms $a_n$ as the power series coefficients, so it would be helpful to include that identification in your Answer. Finally a "fundamental set of solutions" should (for this singular second order homogeneous ODE) consist of a linearly independent pair of solutions.
