Abstract In this paper, we study the Legendre wavelets for the solution of linear, nonlinear and singular Fredholm integral equations of second kind using approximation technique. The properties of Legendre wavelets together with the Gaussian integration method are used to reduce the problem to the solution of algebraic equations. The main purpose of this article is to discuss the theoretical a...

In this paper, a numerical approach based on an m-set of general, orthogonal triangular functions (TF) is proposed to approximate the solution of Fredholm integral equations of the first kind. By using the orthogonal triangular functions as a basis in Galerkin method, the solution of linear integral equations reduces to a system of algebric equations. If the recent system become ill-conditioned...

Three-body resonances in atomic systems are calculated as complexenergy solutions of Faddeev-type integral equations. The homogeneous FaddeevMerkuriev integral equations are solved by approximating the potential terms in a Coulomb-Sturmian basis. The Coulomb-Sturmian matrix elements of the three-body Coulomb Green’s operator has been calculated as a contour integral of two-body Coulomb Green’s ...

This paper describes an approximating solution, based on Lagrange interpolation and spline functions, to treat functional integral equations of Fredholm type and Volterra type. This method can be extended to functional differential and integro-differential equations. For showing efficiency of the method we give some numerical examples.

Three iterative refinement schemes are studied for approximating the solutions of linear weakly singular Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. The rates of convergence and computational costs of the three schemes are studied and compared with the classical approach by applying them respectively to: (i) a sparse linear system associated with an integral equation modelling a real life A...

The collocation method based on cubic B-spline, is developed to approximate the solution of second kind nonlinear Fredholm integral equations. First of all, we collocate the solution by B-spline collocation method then the Newton-Cotes formula use to approximate the integrand. Convergence analysis has been investigated and proved that the quadrature rule is third order convergent. The presented...

In this paper, an efficient direct method based on Legendre wavelets is introduced to approximate the solution of Fredholm integral equations of the first kind. These basic functions are orthonormal and have compact support. The properties of the Legendre wavelets are utilized to convert the integral equations into a system of linear algebraic equations. The main characteristic of the method is...
