Singular Solution - A Divergent Solution

A Divergent Solution

Consider the homogeneous linear ordinary differential

where primes denote derivatives with respect to x. The general solution to this equation is

For a given, this solution is smooth except at where the solution is divergent. Furthermore, for a given, this is the unique solution going through .
