2.Singular Solutions and Extraneous Loci Solved Examples

Investigate for singular solution and extraneous loci of the following differential equations:
Example:1. p^2(1-x^2)=1-y^2
Solution:The given equation can be written in the following form
p^2(1-x^2)=1-y^2 \cdots(1) \\p^2=\frac{1-y^2}{1-x^2}\\ p=\pm\sqrt{\frac{1-y^2}{1-x^2}}\\ p=\frac{dy}{dx}=\pm\sqrt{\frac{1-y^2}{1-x^2}}\\ \frac{dy}{\sqrt{1-y^2}}\pm\frac{dx}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}=0
Integrating both sides,we get
\sin^{-1}y\pm\sin^{-1}x=\sin^{-1}c\\ \sin^{-1} \left[ y\sqrt{1-x^2}\pm x\sqrt{1-y^2} \right]=\sin^{-1}c\\ \left[ y\sqrt{1-x^2}\pm x\sqrt{1-y^2} \right]=c \\ y\sqrt{1-x^2}=c\mp x\sqrt{1-y^2} \cdots(2)
Which is general solution
c-discriminant
Squaring (2) both sides
y^2(1-x^2)=c^2\mp2cx\sqrt{1-y^2}+x^2 \left( \sqrt{(1-y^2)} \right)^2 \\ c^2\mp2cx\sqrt{1-y^2}+x^2(1-y^2)-y^2(1-x^2)=0\\ B^2-4AC=0\\ (\mp2x\sqrt{1-y^2})^2-4 \times 1 \times \left[x^2(1-y^2)-y^2(1-x^2)\right]=0\\ 4x^2(1-y^2)-4 \left(x^2-x^2y^2-y^2+x^2y^2\right)=0 \\ 4\left[x^2-x^2y^2-x^2+y^2\right]=0\\ \Rightarrow y^2-x^2y^2=0\\ \Rightarrow y^2(1-x^2)=0 \\ \Rightarrow y^2(1-x)(1+x)=0 \cdots(3)
p-discriminant
p^2(1-x^2)+0\cdot p-(1-y^2)=0\\ \Rightarrow B^2-4AC=0\\ \Rightarrow 0^2-4(1-x^2)\left[-(1-y^2)\right]=0\\ \Rightarrow (1-x^2)(1-y^2)=0\\ \Rightarrow (1-x)(1+x)(1-y)(1+y)=0 \cdots(4)
Common factors occurring once in c-discriminant and p-discriminant (1-x)(1+x)=0 is singular solution
\Rightarrow x=\pm 1
Again y=0 which occurs twice is c-discriminant only and does not satisfy the differential equation:
Nodal Locus : y=0
Example:2. y^2(y-xp)=x^4p^2
Solution: y^2(y-xp)=x^4p^2 \cdots(1)
Put u=\frac{1}{x},\qquad v=\frac{1}{y}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{du}{dx}=-\frac{1}{x^2},\qquad \frac{dv}{dy}=-\frac{1}{y^2}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{\dfrac{du}{dx}}{\dfrac{dv}{dy}}=\frac{-\dfrac{1}{x^2}}{-\dfrac{1}{y^2}} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{y^2}{x^2}\frac{dv}{du} \\ p=\frac{y^2}{x^2}P
Putting these values in (1),we get
y^2\left(y-x\cdot\frac{y^2}{x^2}P\right)=x^4\cdot\frac{y^4}{x^4}P^2\\ \Rightarrow \frac{y^2}{x}(xy-y^2P)=y^4P^2\\ \Rightarrow \frac{u}{v^2}\left(\frac{1}{u}\cdot\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{v^2}P\right)=\frac{1}{v^4}P^2\\ \Rightarrow \frac{u}{v^2}\left(\frac{v-uP}{uv^2}\right)=\frac{1}{v^4}P^2\\ \Rightarrow \frac{u(v-uP)}{u\cdot v^4}=\frac{1}{v^4}P^2\\ \Rightarrow v-uP=P^2 \\ v=uP+P^2 \cdots(2)
Which is of Clairaut’s form;therefore its solution is
v=uc+c^2\\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{y}=\frac{1}{x}c+c^2\\ \Rightarrow x=cy+c^2xy
Which is primitive:
c-discriminant
B^2-4AC=0\\ \Rightarrow y^2-4xy(-x)=0\\ \Rightarrow y^2+4x^2y=0\\ \Rightarrow y(y+4x^2)=0 \cdots(3)
p-discriminant
From (2):
P^2+uP-v=0\\ u^2-4(1)(-v)=0\\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{x^2}+\frac{4}{y}=0\\ \Rightarrow y+4x^2=0
Common factors occurring once in (3) and (4)
y=4 x^2 is singular solution
Example:3. y = 2xp + y^2p^3
Solution:The given equation can be written in the following form
y = 2xp + y^2p^3 \cdots(1) \\ 2xp = y - y^2p^3 \\ \Rightarrow x = \frac{y}{2p} - \frac{y^2p^2}{2}
Now differentiating w.r.t. y,we get
\Rightarrow \frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{1}{2p} - \frac{y}{2p^2} \frac{dp}{dy} - yp^2 - y^2p \frac{dp}{dy} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{p} = \frac{1}{2p} - \frac{y}{2p^2} \frac{dp}{dy} - yp^2 - y^2p \frac{dp}{dy} \quad \left[ \because \frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{1}{p} \right] \\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{p} - \frac{1}{2p} + \frac{y}{2p^2} \frac{dp}{dy} + yp^2 + y^2p \frac{dp}{dy} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2p} + \frac{y}{2p^2} \frac{dp}{dy} + yp^2 + y^2p \frac{dp}{dy} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2p} \left( 1 + \frac{y}{p} \frac{dp}{dy} \right) + yp^2 \left( 1 + \frac{y}{p} \frac{dp}{dy} \right) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \left( 1 + \frac{y}{p} \frac{dp}{dy} \right) \left( \frac{1}{2p} + yp^2 \right) = 0
Here the first factor when equated to zero will give primitive,we have
1 + \frac{y}{p} \frac{dp}{dy} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{y}{p} \frac{dp}{dy} = -1 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{dp}{p} = -\frac{dy}{y}
Integrating both sides,we get
\log p = -\log y + \log c \\ \Rightarrow p = \frac{c}{y}
Elimination of p between (1) and (2) we get
y = 2x \left( \frac{c}{y} \right) + y^2 \left( \frac{c^3}{y^3} \right) \\ \Rightarrow y = \frac{2xc}{y} + \frac{c^3}{y} \\ \Rightarrow y^2 = 2cx + c^3 \quad \cdots (3)
Differentiating w.r.t. c,we get
0=2x + 3c^2 \quad \cdots (4)
c-discriminant
Elimination c between (3) and (4)
(y^2)^2 = (2xc + c^3)^2 \\ \Rightarrow y^4 = 4x^2c^2 + c^6 + 4c^4x \\ \Rightarrow y^4 = 4x^2\left(-\frac{2x}{3}\right) + \left(-\frac{2x}{3}\right)^3 + 4\left(-\frac{2x}{3}\right)^2x \\ \Rightarrow y^4 = -\frac{8}{3}x^3 - \frac{8x^3}{27} + \frac{16x^3}{9} \\ \Rightarrow y^4 = \frac{-72x^3 - 8x^3 + 48x^3}{27} \\ \Rightarrow y^4 = \frac{-80x^3 + 48x^3}{27} \\ \Rightarrow 27y^4 = -32x^3 \\ \Rightarrow 27y^4 + 32x^3 = 0
p-discriminant
differentiating (1) w.r.t p , we get
0 = 2x + 3y^2p^2 \\ \Rightarrow p^2 = -\frac{2x}{3y^2} \quad \cdots (5)
Elimination p between (1) and (5)
y^2 = 2xp + y^2p^3 \\ y^2 = (2xp + y^2p^3)^2 \\ \Rightarrow y^2 = 4x^2p^2 + 4xy^2p^4 + y^4p^6 \\ = 4x^2\left(-\frac{2x}{3y^2}\right) + 4xy^2\left(-\frac{2x}{3y^2}\right)^2 + y^4\left(-\frac{2x}{3y^2}\right)^3 \\ = -\frac{8x^3}{3y^2} + \frac{16x^3}{9y^2} - \frac{8x^3}{27y^2} \\ = \frac{-72x^3 + 48x^3 - 8x^3}{27y^2} \\ = \frac{-32x^3}{27y^2} \\ \Rightarrow 27y^4 + 32x^3 = 0 \quad \cdots (6)
Common factors occurring once in c-discriminant and p-discriminant in (5) and (6) therefore
Singular solution: 27y^4 + 32x^3 = 0

Example:4. 4x(x-1)(x-2)p^2 - (3x^2 - 6x + 2)^2 = 0
Solution: 4x(x-1)(x-2)p^2 = (3x^2 - 6x + 2)^2 =0 \cdots(1)\\ p^2 = \frac{(3x^2 - 6x + 2)^2}{4x(x-1)(x-2)} \\ p=\frac{dy}{dx} = \pm \frac{3x^2 - 6x + 2}{2\sqrt{x(x-1)(x-2)}} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx} = \pm \frac{3x^2 - 6x + 2}{2\sqrt{x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x}} \\ \Rightarrow \int dy = \pm \int \frac{3x^2 - 6x + 2}{2\sqrt{x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x}} dx
Put x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x = t \\ \Rightarrow (3x^2 - 6x + 2)dx = dt \\ \Rightarrow y = \pm \int \frac{dt}{2\sqrt{t}} \\ \Rightarrow y = \pm \sqrt{t} + c \\ \Rightarrow y = \pm \sqrt{x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x} + c \\ \Rightarrow (y-c)^2 = x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x
Integrating both sides,we get
Which is primitive of the equation,we can written as
c^2 - 2cy + y^2 - x(x-1)(x-2) = 0
c-discriminant
B^2 - 4AC = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (-2y)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot [y^2 - x(x-1)(x-2)] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow 4y^2 - 4[y^2 - x(x-1)(x-2)] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow 4[y^2 - y^2 + x(x-1)(x-2)] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow x(x-1)(x-2) = 0 \quad \cdots (2)
p-discriminant
B^2 - 4AC = 0 \\ \Rightarrow 0 - 4(x)(x-1)(x-2) [- (3x^2 - 6x + 2)^2 ]= 0 \\ \Rightarrow x(x-1)(x-2)(3x^2 - 6x + 2)^2 = 0 \quad \cdots (3)
Common factors occurring once in c-discriminant and p-discriminant in (2) and (3)
x(x-1)(x-2) = 0
Again (3x^2 - 6x + 2)^2 = 0 which is occurs twice only in p-discriminant represents tac-locus
x = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{(-6)^2 - 4 \times 3 \times 2}}{2 \times 3} \\ = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36 - 24}}{6} \\ = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{12}}{6} \\ = \frac{6 \pm 4\sqrt{3}}{6} \\ = \frac{6}{6} \pm \frac{4\sqrt{3}}{6} \\ \Rightarrow x = 1 \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}
Example:5. p^2(x^2 - a^2) - 2pxy + y^2 - b^2 = 0
Solution: p^2(x^2 - a^2) - 2pxy + y^2 - b^2 = 0 \\ y = \frac{2px \pm \sqrt{(-2px)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot [p^2(x^2 - a^2) - b^2]}}{2 \cdot 1} \\ =\frac{2px \pm \sqrt{4p^2x^2 - 4p^2x^2 + 4p^2a^2 - 4b^2}}{2} \\ = \frac{2px \pm \sqrt{4(p^2a^2 - b^2)}}{2} \\ \Rightarrow y = px \pm \sqrt{p^2a^2 - b^2}
This is clairaut’s form.Hence replacing p by c,general solution is
\Rightarrow y = cx \pm \sqrt{c^2a^2 - b^2}
p-discriminant
(a^2 - x^2)p^2 + 2xyp + (b^2 - y^2) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow B^2 - 4AC = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (2xy)^2 - 4(a^2 - x^2)(b^2 - y^2) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow 4x^2y^2 - 4(a^2b^2 - a^2y^2 - b^2x^2 + x^2y^2) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow 4[x^2y^2 - a^2b^2 + a^2y^2 + b^2x^2 - x^2y^2] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow a^2y^2 + b^2x^2 = a^2b^2 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{a^2y^2}{a^2b^2} + \frac{b^2x^2}{a^2b^2} = 1 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1
Which is singular solution
Example:6. (px - y)(x - py) = 2p
Solution: (px - y)(x - py) = 2p \quad \cdots (1)
This is clairaut’s form.Hence replacing p by c,the general solution is
Put x^2 = u \text{ and } y^2 = v \\ 2xdx = du \text{ and } 2ydy = dv \\ \frac{y}{x}\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right) = \frac{dv}{du} \Rightarrow p = \left(\frac{x}{y}\right)P \\ \Rightarrow \left(\frac{x}{y}P \cdot x - y\right)\left(x - \frac{x}{y}P \cdot y\right) = 2\frac{x}{y}P \\ \Rightarrow \frac{(x^2P - y^2)}{y} (x - xP) = \frac{2x}{y}P \\ \Rightarrow x(x^2P - y^2)(1 - P) = 2P \cdot x \\ \Rightarrow (x^2P - y^2)(1 - P) = 2P \\ \Rightarrow (uP - v)(1 - P) = 2P \\ \Rightarrow uP - uP^2 - v + vP = 2P \\ \Rightarrow uP - v = \frac{2P}{1 - P} \\ \Rightarrow v = uP - \frac{2P}{1 - P}
This is cairayt,s form.Hence replacing p byy c, the general solution is
\Rightarrow v = uc - \frac{2c}{1-c} \\ \Rightarrow y^2 = x^2c - \frac{2c}{1-c} \\ \Rightarrow y^2 = \frac{x^2c(1-c) - 2c}{1-c} \\ \Rightarrow y^2(1-c) = x^2c - x^2c^2 - 2c \\ \Rightarrow y^2 - cy^2 = x^2c - x^2c^2 - 2c \\ \Rightarrow x^2c^2 + (-x^2 - y^2 + 2)c + y^2 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow c^2x^2 - (x^2 + y^2 - 2)c + y^2 = 0
c-discriminant
B^2 - 4AC = 0 \\ \Rightarrow [-(x^2 + y^2 - 2)]^2 - 4 \cdot x^2 \cdot y^2 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x^2 + y^2 - 2)^2 - 4x^2y^2 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x^2 + y^2 - 2)^2 - (2xy)^2 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x^2 + y^2 - 2 - 2xy)(x^2 + y^2 - 2 + 2xy) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow [(x-y)^2 - (\sqrt{2})^2] [(x+y)^2 - (\sqrt{2})^2] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x-y-\sqrt{2})(x-y+\sqrt{2})(x+y+\sqrt{2})(x+y-\sqrt{2}) = 0 \quad \cdots (1)
p-discriminant
(px - y)(x - py) = 2p \\ \Rightarrow px^2 - p^2xy - xy + py^2 = 2p \\ \Rightarrow p^2xy - p(x^2 + y^2 - 2) + xy = 0 \\ B^2 - 4AC = 0 \\ \Rightarrow [-(x^2 + y^2 - 2)]^2 - 4 \cdot xy \cdot xy = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x^2 + y^2 - 2)^2 - 4x^2y^2 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x^2 + y^2 - 2)^2 - (2xy)^2 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x^2 + y^2 - 2 - 2xy)(x^2 + y^2 - 2 + 2xy) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow [(x-y)^2 - (\sqrt{2})^2] [(x+y)^2 - (\sqrt{2})^2] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x-y-\sqrt{2})(x-y+\sqrt{2})(x+y-\sqrt{2})(x+y+\sqrt{2}) = 0 \quad \cdots (2)
Common factors occurring once in c-discriminant and p-discriminant in (1) and (2)
(x-y-\sqrt{2})(x-y+\sqrt{2})(x+y-\sqrt{2})(x+y+\sqrt{2}) = 0
is singular solution
Example:7. p^3 - 4xyp + 8y^2 = 0
Solution: p^3 - 4xyp + 8y^2 = 0
The given equation can be written in the following form
4xyp = p^3 + 8y^2 \\ \Rightarrow x = \frac{p^3}{4yp} + \frac{8y^2}{4yp} \Rightarrow x = \frac{p^2}{4y} + \frac{2y}{p}
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. y,we get
\frac{dx}{dy} = -\frac{p^2}{4y^2} + \frac{p}{2y}\frac{dp}{dy} + \frac{2}{p} - \frac{2y}{p^2}\frac{dp}{dy} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{p} = -\frac{p^2}{4y^2} + \frac{p}{2y}\frac{dp}{dy} + \frac{2}{p} - \frac{2y}{p^2}\frac{dp}{dy} \quad \left(\text{since } \frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{1}{p}\right) \\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{p} - \frac{2}{p} + \frac{p^2}{4y^2} - \frac{p}{2y}\frac{dp}{dy} + \frac{2y}{p^2}\frac{dp}{dy} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow -\frac{1}{p} - \frac{p}{2y}\frac{dp}{dy} + \frac{p^2}{4y^2} + \frac{2y}{p^2}\frac{dp}{dy} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow -1\left(\frac{1}{p} + \frac{p}{2y}\frac{dp}{dy}\right) + \frac{p^2}{4y^2}\left(\frac{1}{p} + \frac{p}{2y}\frac{dp}{dy}\right) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow -\frac{1}{p} + \frac{2y}{p^2}\frac{dp}{dy} - \frac{p}{2y}\frac{dp}{dy} + \frac{p^2}{4y^2} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow -\frac{1}{p}\left(1 - \frac{2y}{p}\frac{dp}{dy}\right) + \frac{p^2}{4y^2}\left(1 - \frac{2y}{p}\frac{dp}{dy}\right) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \left(1 - \frac{2y}{p}\frac{dp}{dy}\right) \left(-\frac{1}{p} + \frac{p^2}{4y^2}\right) = 0
Here the first factor when equated to zero will give primitive we have
1 - \frac{2y}{p}\frac{dp}{dy} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{2y}{p}\frac{dp}{dy} = 1 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{dy}{y} = \frac{2}{p} dp
Integrate : \int \frac{2}{p} dp = \int \frac{dy}{y} \\ \Rightarrow 2\log p = \log y + \log c_1 \\ \Rightarrow p^2 = c_1y \quad \cdots (2)
Elemininating p from (1) and (2),we get
(c_1y)^{3/2} - 4xy(c_1y)^{1/2} + 8y^2 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow y^{3/2} [c_1^{3/2} \cdot y - 4c_1^{1/2}x + 8y^{1/2}] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow c_1^{3/2}y - 4c_1^{1/2}x + 8y^{1/2} = 0 \\ \Rightarrow 8y^{1/2} = 4c_1^{1/2}x - c_1^{3/2}y \\ \Rightarrow y^{1/2} = \frac{c_1^{1/2}}{2}x - \frac{c_1^{3/2}}{8} \\ y^{1/2} = \frac{c_1^{1/2}}{2}(x - \frac{c_1}{4})
c-discriminant
put \frac{c_1^{1/2}}{2} = \sqrt{C} \\ y^{1/2} = \sqrt{C}(x-C) \\ \Rightarrow y = C(x-C)^2 \quad \cdots (3)
Differentiating w.r.t. c,we get
0 = (x-C)^2 + C \cdot 2(x-C)(-1) \\ \Rightarrow (x-C) [x-C-2C] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (x-C)(x-3C) = 0 \quad \text{put } C = \frac{x}{3} \\ y = \frac{x}{3}(x-\frac{x}{3})^2 \Rightarrow y = \frac{x}{3} \cdot \frac{4x^2}{9} \\ \Rightarrow y(27y - 4x^3) = 0 \quad \cdots (4)
p-discriminant
Differentiating (1) w.r.t. p,we get
3p^2 - 4xy = 0 \Rightarrow p^2 = \frac{4}{3}xy \quad \cdots (5)
Eliminating p from (1) and (5)
(p^3 - 4xyp)^2 = (-8y^2)^2 \\ \Rightarrow p^6 + 16x^2y^2p^2 - 8xyp^4 = 64y^4 \\ \Rightarrow (\frac{4}{3}xy)^3 + 16x^2y^2(\frac{4}{3}xy) - 8xy(\frac{4}{3}xy)^2 = 64y^4 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{64}{27}x^3y^3 + \frac{64}{3}x^3y^3 - \frac{128}{9}x^3y^3 = 64y^4 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{64}{27}x^3y^3 - \frac{128}{9}x^3y^3 + \frac{64}{3}x^3y^3 -64y^4=0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{64x^3y^3-384x^3y^3}{27} + \frac{64}{3}x^3y^3 -64y^4=0 \\ \Rightarrow -\frac{320x^3y^3}{27} + \frac{64}{3}x^3y^3 -64y^4=0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{-320x^3y^3 + 576x^3y^3}{27} - 64y^4 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{256x^3y^3}{27} - 64y^4 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{64y^3}{27}(4x^3 - 27y) = 0 \\ y^3(27y-4x^3)=0\cdots(6)
Common factors occurring once in c-discriminant and p-discriminant in (5) and (6)
\Rightarrow y(27y-4x^3)=0
is singular solution

4.Frequently Asked Questions Related to Singular Solutions and Extraneous Loci

Q:1.Explain to the Discriminant

Ans:The discriminant of an equation involving a single variable is defined as the simplest function of the coefficients in a rational integral from whose vanishing is the condition that the equation has two equal roots.

Q:2.Write the definition of singular solution

Ans:A singular solution is defined as being a solution of a differential equation which is not derivable from the general solution by giving a particular value of the arbitrary constant.A singular solution will usually represent the envelope of the family of curves which is the general solution of the differential equation.

Q:3.Write a brief note of the extraneous loci

Ans:sometimes it happens that the p and c discriminant represent other loci besides the envelope known as Extraneous Loci;other equations besides the singular solution.
By answering the above questions,you can know about the primary terms of Singular Solutions and Extraneous Loci.
