Can Mathematica simplify an ordinary differential equation (ODE) by assuming a power series solution and obtain the recurrence relation?
I have an ordinary differential equation and want to solve it using power series as ψ[x_] = Sum[Subscript[a, n] x^n, {n, 0, ∞}] to obtain the recurrence relation ...

How to do this recursion relation in Mathematica effectively?
I have a function $h_{\Delta,l}(r,\eta)$ satisfying
\begin{equation}
h_{\Delta,l}(r,\eta)=\tilde{h}_{l}(r,\eta)+\sum_{k}\frac{c(k)}{\Delta-(1-l-k)}r^{k}h_{1-l+k,l+k}(r,\eta)
\end{equation}
where $k$ ...

Recursive sequence with RecurenceTable
I want to compute elements of a recursive sequence and use them as coefficients of a power series. However, the (i+1)-th element depends on all previous elements. Writing this as a sum in ...

Why doesn't Mathematica evaluate the series with recursion relationship as expected?
I define a series $dg(i)$ as the $i$th derivative of a function $g[t]$ for $i>0$ and known the first term $dg(1)=(t-x)g(t)$. In mathematica, the code is:
...

Solving for the recursion relation for the expansion coefficients of the asymptotic expansion of an ODE
I want to solve for the asymptotic solution of the following differential equation
$$ \left(y^2+1\right) R''(y)+y\left(2-p \left(b_{0} \sqrt{y^2+1}\right)^{-p}\right) R'(y)-l (l+1) R(y)=0$$
as $y\...

How can I make Mathematica return a series expansion in the form $\sum_{j=0}^\infty \dots$ instead of $a_0 + a_1x^1 + \dots + a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+ O(x^n)$
I have a function
$$\phi(x) = \sqrt{(x-t)^2 + c^2},$$
and I want an asymptotic expression for it as $x \to \infty$.
Using the following code I can calculated such an expression:

Computing a series in terms of exponential function
Is there any way to compute the following series in terms of exponential function ?
$$\sum_{k=0}^\infty Y_1(k)\;x^k$$ where
$$Y_1(k) = \frac{(k - 1)!}{k!}Y_3(k - 1)$$
$$Y_2(k) = \frac{(k - 1)!}{k!}...
