Second-kind Volterra integral equations with weakly singular kernels typically have solutions which are nonsmooth near the initial point of the interval of integration. Using an adaptation of the analysis originally developed for nonlinear weakly singular Fredholm integral equations, we present a complete discussion of the optimal (global and local) order of convergence of piecewise polynomial ...

We develop and apply the product integration method to a large class of linear weakly singular Volterra systems. We show that under certain sufficient conditions this method converges. Numerical implementation of the method is illustrated by a benchmark problem originated from heat conduction.

Abstract In this work we study the Ulam–Hyers stability of a differential equation. Its proof is based on Banach fixed point theorem in some space continuous functions equipped with norm $\|\cdot \|_{\infty }$ ∥ ⋅ ∞ . Moreover, ge...

In this paper, a Jacobi-collocation spectral method is developed for Volterra integral equations of second kind with a weakly singular kernel. We use some function transformation and variable transformations to change the equation into a new Volterra integral equation defined on the standard interval [−1, 1], so that the solution of the new equation possesses better regularity and the Jacobi or...

There are many methods for numerical solutions of integral equations. In various branches of science and engineering, chemistry and biology, and physics applications integral equation is provided by many other authors. In this paper, a simple numerical method using a fuzzy, for the numerical solution of the integral equation with the weak singular kernel is provided. Finally, by providing three...

This work is concerned with the numerical solution of a nonlinear weakly singular Volterra integral equation. We investigate the application of product integration methods and a detailed analysis of the Trapezoidal method is given. In order to improve the numerical results we consider extrapolation procedures and collocation methods based on graded meshes. Several examples are presented illustr...

Abstract In this paper, we will present a new method for a Volterra integral equation with weakly singular kernel in the reproducing kernel space. Firstly the equation is transformed into a new equivalent equation. Its exact solution is represented in the form of series in the reproducing kernel space. In the mean time, the n-term approximation un(t) to the exact solution u(t) is obtained. Some...

The present paper proposes a fast numerical method for the linear Volterra integral equations withregular and weakly singular kernels having smooth solutions. This method is based on the approx-imation of the kernel, to simplify the integral operator and then discretization of the simpliedoperator using a forward dierence formula. To analyze and verify the accuracy of the method, weexamine samp...
