Re: Proof of Corollary
A corrollary should follow from a preceeding theorem, so that's the first place to look. What book/page number is this?
I'm guessing that L_n is an nth order differential equation? That determinant is almost exactly the same as the Wronskian, I would first calculate that out. You should be able to come up with a pretty simple closed form for it.
