Antiderivatives and linear differential equations using matrices. (English) Zbl 1393.26008

Summary: We show how to find the closed-form solutions for antiderivatives of \(x^n e^{ax} \sin bx\) and \(x^n e^{ax} \cos bx\) for all \(n \in \mathbb{N}_0\) and \(a, b \in \mathbb{R}\) with \(a^2 + b^2 \neq 0\) by using an idea of Rogers, who suggested using the inverse of the matrix for the differential operator. Additionally, we use the matrix to illustrate the method to find the particular solution for a nonhomogeneous linear differential equation with constant coefficients and forcing terms involving \(x^n e^{ax} \sin bx\) or \(x^n e^{ax} \cos bx\).
