Let $x$ be a complex variable of $\mathbb{C} \setminus \{\infty\}$ .The function Cosine (noted $\operatorname{cos}$ ) is defined by the following second order differential equation


\begin{equation*} 
\begin{split} 
y (x) + \frac{\partial^{2} y (x)}{\partial x^{2}}& =0. 
\end{split} 
\end{equation*}
CS.1.1

The initial conditions of CS.1.1 are given at $0$ by


\begin{equation*} 
\begin{split} 
\operatorname{cos} (0)& =1, \\ 
\frac{\partial \operatorname{cos} (x)}{\partial x} (0)& =0. 
\end{split} 
\end{equation*}

u (n) + \bigl(n^{2} + 3 n + 2\bigr) u (n + 2)& =0. 
\end{split}
