Explicit solutions of the ${\mathfrak{a}}_1$-type Lie-Scheffers system and a general Riccati equation

Abstract

For a general differential system $\dot{x}(t)={\sum }_{d=1}^3{u}_d(t)X_d$, where $X_d$ generates the simple Lie algebra of type ${\mathfrak{a}}_1$, we compute the explicit solution in terms of iterated integrals of products of $u_d$'s. As a byproduct we obtain the solution of a general Riccati equation by infinite quadratures.
