The solution is a[n] n! == (a0^(n/2) (2^n C[1] + (-2)^n C[2]) * Gamma[(b0 + 2 a0 (n + 2) - Sqrt[b0^2 - 4 a0 c0])/(4 a0)] * Gamma[(b0 + 2 a0 (n + 2) + Sqrt[b0^2 - 4 a0 c0])/(4 a0)])/ (Gamma[(4 a0 + b0 - Sqrt[b0^2 - 4 a0 c0])/(4 a0)] * Gamma[(4 a0 + b0 + Sqrt[b0^2 - 4 a0 c0])/(4 a0)]) Cheers, Paul _______________________________________________________________________ Paul Abbott Phone: 61 8 6488 2734 School of Physics, M013 Fax: +61 8 6488 1014 The University of Western Australia (CRICOS Provider No 00126G) AUSTRALIA http://physics.uwa.edu.au/~paul
