in this paper it is shown that the use of‎ ‎uniform meshes leads to optimal convergence rates provided that‎ ‎the analytical solutions of a particular class of‎ ‎fredholm-volterra integral equations (fvies) are smooth‎.

Laplacian potential fields in stratified media are usually analyzed using an integral equation for an unknown function over the union of all the interfaces between regions with different homogeneous materials. In this paper, the field problem is solved using a reduced integral equation involving a single unknown function over only the boundary of the source region. The new integral equation is ...

We study singularly perturbed Fredholm equations of the second kind. We give sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of solutions and describe the asymptotic behavior of the solutions. We examine the relationship between the solutions of the perturbed and unperturbed equations, exhibiting the degeneration of the boundary layer to delta functions. The results are applied to several ex...

that g* has the same derived algebra as g itself and that every ideal in g is also an ideal in t*. Let g be any algebraic Lie algebra. Denote by b the radical of g (i.e., the largest solvable ideal in g) and by n the largest ideal of g composed only of nilpotent matrices. By Levi's theorem, g is the direct sum of t and of a semi-simple subalgebra J. It can be proved that f is the direct sum of ...
