The useful change of independent variable in a second-order ODE is $t=\log x$, followed by $y(x)=xv(t)$. The chain rule givesThus the eigenvalue equation becomes $v_{tt}=\lambda v$ on $0<t<1$, and the endpoint values become $v(0)=v(1)=0$. At the specified eigenvalues,The first endpoint forces $A=0$; the second holds for every positive integer $k$. Choosing a convenient normalization yieldsEach nonzero constant multiple is the same eigenfunction up to normalization. This logarithmic conjugacy of a repeated-root Euler operator turns the Cauchy-Euler equation into the familiar Fourier sine series problem on a unit interval.
