Derivative of a differential equation












0














I'm following a paper where at some point the author get the following derivative:



$$frac{partial V}{partial L}=Y-Xfrac{dY}{dX}=alpha X^{-frac{c}{b}}Y^{frac{1}{b}}$$



where: $Y=frac{V}{L}$ and $X=frac{K}{L}$



Then, starting from this he calculates the partial derivative with respect
to L and the cross second-order partial derivative (the partial derivative with respect to K), whose results are shown below:



$$frac{partial^2 V}{L^{2}}=-frac{alpha }{bL} X^{-frac{c}{b}}Y^{frac{1}{b}-1}left ( Xfrac{dY}{dX}-cY right )$$



$$frac{partial^2 V}{dKdL}=frac{alpha }{bL} X^{-frac{c}{b}-1}Y^{frac{1}{b}-1}left ( Xfrac{dY}{dX}-cY right )$$



Since this is the first time that I have to work with differential equations, I would like some advice on how to proceed to obtain the results mentioned above. Sorry if the question is stupid (I am an economist and not a mathematician :)) and every help/hint or suggestion will be very valuable.



Thank you so much,



Alessandro
