Solution of a second-order Poincaré-Perron-type equation and differential equations that can be reduced to it

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We give an analytic solution of a second-order difference Poincaré-Perron-type equation. This enables us to construct a solution of the differential equation {fx1055-01} in explicit form. A solution of this equation is expressed in terms of two hypergeometric functions and one new special function. As a separate case, we obtain an explicit solution of the Heun equation and determine its polynomial solutions.
