I was trying to solve the critical exponent PDE
$$Delta u = u^fracn+2n-2$$
in $mathbbR^n$ and ultimately reduced it to the following ODE $$fracdydr=ce^int_0^ry-y^2-fracyr$$
with the initial condition $y(0)=k in mathbbR$ for any $ngeq 3$. I want to prove existence and uniqueness in $[0,epsilon)$. I tried to do this for the simpler case
$$fracdydr=1-y^2-fracyr$$
but even here I don't know how to deal with the $1/r$. Any hints?

Hint.
Making the variable change
$$
y = fracz'zRightarrow r z''+z'-r z = 0
$$
which is linear. All this for $r z ne 0$
This is the ODE I started with. Can you solve it? Because the 1/r is there as well.

@AdityaKumar The solution is $y(r) = C_1 J_0(i r)+C_2 Y_0(-i r)$ (Bessel functions)

Okay, but this won't work in the general case :(
