Serial solution of o.d.e. (A. Gruzinov, 2005): cos(t)*f'(t) + sin(t)*f''(t) + (3/4)*sin(t)*f(t) = 0, f(-Pi/2) = 1, f'(-Pi/2) = 0, f(t) = 1 - (3/8)*(t + Pi/2)^2 - (5/128)*(t + Pi/2)^4 - (193/15360)*(t + Pi/2)^4 - ... All coefficients (except for 1) are negative, and there is no simple recursion or other formula for the serial coefficients.
