Solve differential equation $xyy'=x^4+y^4$
$begingroup$
How to find general solution to this differential equation (if it exists):
$$ xyy'=x^4+y^4 ?$$
I do not know how to even approach it since I never dealt with nonlinear equations. Only thing that I notice is that $x$ and $y$ are symetric in equation: $$ y'=dfrac{x^4+y^4}{xy}$$
so I expect (maybe) some kind of symetric function for y(x).
Thanks for any help.

Couple of comments: 1. It isn't actually symmetric, as you can see by rearranging into differential form: $(x^4+y^4),dx-xy,dy=0.$ 2. The solution, if it exists, must have positive slope in the first and third quadrants, and negative slope in the second and fourth quadrants.

Observing that $y y' = left(frac{1}{2}y^2right)'$ we define the new dependent variable $z := frac{1}{2} y^2$, $y^4 = 4 z^2$. We then obtain a Riccati equation for $z$: $z' = x^3 + frac{4}{x} z^2$.
This Riccati equation (like any Riccati equation) can be reduced to a second-order linear ordinary differential equation by writing
begin{equation}
z = - frac{x}{4} frac{u'}{u}, quad z^2 = frac{x^2}{16} frac{(u')^2}{u^2}, quad z' = - frac{1}{4} frac{u'}{u} - frac{x}{4} frac{u'' u - (u')^2}{u^2},
end{equation}
which yields $x^2 u'' + x u' + 4 x^4 u = 0$. With the definition of a new independent variable
begin{equation}
xi := x^2, quad frac{d}{dx} = 2 xi^{1/2} frac{d}{dxi}, quad frac{d^2}{dx^2} = 2 frac{d}{dxi} + 4 xi frac{d^2}{dxi^2},
end{equation}
we obtain the Bessel differential equation
begin{equation}
xi^2 frac{d^2 u}{d xi^2} + xi frac{d u}{dxi} + xi^2 u = 0,
end{equation}
with fundamental solutions $J_0(xi)$, $Y_0(xi)$ (zeroth-order Bessel functions).

This Riccati equation (like any Riccati equation) can be reduced to a second-order linear ordinary differential equation by writing
begin{equation}
z = - frac{x}{4} frac{u'}{u}, quad z^2 = frac{x^2}{16} frac{(u')^2}{u^2}, quad z' = - frac{1}{4} frac{u'}{u} - frac{x}{4} frac{u'' u - (u')^2}{u^2},
end{equation}
which yields $x^2 u'' + x u' + 4 x^4 u = 0$. With the definition of a new independent variable
begin{equation}
xi := x^2, quad frac{d}{dx} = 2 xi^{1/2} frac{d}{dxi}, quad frac{d^2}{dx^2} = 2 frac{d}{dxi} + 4 xi frac{d^2}{dxi^2},
end{equation}
we obtain the Bessel differential equation
begin{equation}
xi^2 frac{d^2 u}{d xi^2} + xi frac{d u}{dxi} + xi^2 u = 0,
end{equation}
with fundamental solutions $J_0(xi)$, $Y_0(xi)$ (zeroth-order Bessel functions).
