finding out if expr has the form F(y/x^a)

?Theorem.
Expresion u(x,y)  has the form  u(x,y)=h(y/x^a) * y/x  if only if
u(x,y) is solution of pde  

a*y*diff(u(x,y),y)+x*diff(u(x,y),x)=(a-1)*u(x,y)      (1)

<snip>
Equation (1) can solve with Maple pdsolve.

I can look for more examples to check now that I have the pde, but so far my function works in every case I have checked.
pdecheck1(g,x,y):=block

    [g2,g3,g4,g5,g6,_a,inflag : true],
    catch(g2:g*x/y,
    if is(equal(at(denom(g2),y=1/x),0))=true then throw(false),
    g3:at(g2,y=1/x),
    if is(equal(g3,g2))=true then 
        (g6:1,_a:%r) 
    else
