Approximate solution of singular integro- differential equations in generalized Hölder spaces

We have elaborated the numerical schemes of collocation methods and mechanical quadrature methods for approximate solution of singular integro- differential equations with kernels of Cauchy type. The equations are defined on the arbitrary smooth closed contours of complex plane. The researched methods are based on Fejér points. Theoretical background of collocation methods and mechanical quadrature methods has been obtained in Generalized Hölder spaces.     

Singular integral operators on Riemann surfaces and elliptic differential systems

The derivatives of the Cauchy kernels on compact Riemann surfaces generate singular integral operators analogous to the Calderón-Zigmund operators with the kernel (t - z)² on the complex plane. These operators play an important role in studying elliptic differential equations, boundary value problems, etc. We consider here the most important case of the multi-valued Cauchy kernel with real normalization of periods. In the opposite plane case, such an operator is not unitary. Nevertheless, its norm in L₂ is equal to one. This result is used to study multi-valued solutions of elliptic differential systems.     

Continuity and compactness of singular integral operators

In the space of square integrable functions we establish effective sufficient continuity and compactness conditions for singular integral operators with Cauchy kernels on a segment of the real axis.     

Fractional Multistep Methods for Weakly Singular Volterra Integral Equations of the First Kind with Perturbed Data

ABSTRACT

Fractional multistep methods were introduced by C. Lubich for the quadrature of Abel integral operators and the solution of weakly singular Volterra integral equations of the first kind with exactly given right-hand sides. In the current paper, we consider the regularizing properties of these methods to solve the mentioned integral equations of the first kind for perturbed right-hand sides. Finally, numerical results are presented.     

A remark on the application of interpolatory quadrature rules to the numerical solution of singular integral equations

A Cauchy type singular integral equation of the first or the second kind can be numerically solved either directly or after its reduction (by the usual regularization procedure) to an equivalent Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The equivalence of these two methods (that is, the equivalence both of the systems of linear algebraic equations to which the singular integral equation is reduced and of the natural interpolation formulae) is proved in this paper for a class of Cauchy type singular integral equations of the first kind and of the second kind (but with constant coefficients) for general interpolatory quadrature rules under sufficiently mild assumptions. The present results constitute an extension of a series of previous results concerning only Gaussian quadrature rules, based on the corresponding orthogonal polynomials and their properties.     

Integration of singular Galerkin-type boundary element integrals for 3D elasticity problems

Summary. A Galerkin approximation of both strongly and hypersingular boundary integral equation (BIE) is considered for the solution of a mixed boundary value problem in 3D elasticity leading to a symmetric system of linear equations. The evaluation of Cauchy principal values (v. p.) and finite parts (p. f.) of double integrals is one of the most difficult parts within the implementation of such boundary element methods (BEMs). A new integration method, which is strictly derived for the cases of coincident elements as well as edge-adjacent and vertex-adjacent elements, leads to explicitly given regular integrand functions which can be integrated by the standard Gauss-Legendre and Gauss-Jacobi quadrature rules. Problems of a wide range of integral kernels on curved surfaces can be treated by this integration method. We give estimates of the quadrature errors of the singular four-dimensional integrals.

Numerical solution of linear Volterra integral equations of the second kind with sharp gradients

Collocation methods are a well-developed approach for the numerical solution of smooth and weakly singular Volterra integral equations. In this paper, we extend these methods through the use of partitioned quadrature based on the qualocation framework, to allow the efficient numerical solution of linear, scalar Volterra integral equations of the second kind with smooth kernels containing sharp gradients. In this case, the standard collocation methods may lose computational efficiency despite the smoothness of the kernel. We illustrate how the qualocation framework can allow one to focus computational effort where necessary through improved quadrature approximations, while keeping the solution approximation fixed. The computational performance improvement introduced by our new method is examined through several test examples. The final example we consider is the original problem that motivated this work: the problem of calculating the probability density associated with a continuous-time random walk in three dimensions that may be killed at a fixed lattice site. To demonstrate how separating the solution approximation from quadrature approximation may improve computational performance, we also compare our new method to several existing Gregory, Sinc, and global spectral methods, where quadrature approximation and solution approximation are coupled.     

On the numerical solution of integral equations of the second kind with weakly singular kernels

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the (Toeplitz) quadrature method for solving Fredholm integral equations of the second kind with mildly singular kernels. We are presented some numerical examples for the computation of the error estimate using the MathCad package.     

The piecewise polynomial collocation method for nonlinear weakly singular Volterra equations

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 collocation methods on graded grids for nonlinear Volterra integral equations with algebraic or logarithmic singularities in their kernels.

Closed-form solutions for some classes of singular integral equations with Cauchy kernel and infinite integration domain

We obtain closed-form solutions of singular integral equations with Cauchy kernels in the case of an infinite integration domain. Further, we find natural conditions for the uniqueness of solutions of these equations for the case in which the solution contains arbitrary functions or arbitrary constants.

On the numerical solution of Cauchy type singular integral equations by the collocation method

The collocation method for the numerical solution of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind is applied, properly modified, to the numerical solution of Cauchy type singular integral equations of the first or the second kind but with constant coefficients. This direct method of numerical solution of Cauchy type singular integral equations is compared afterwards with the corresponding method resulting from applying the collocation method to the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind equivalent to the Cauchy type singular integral equation, as well as with another method, based also on the regularization procedure, for the numerical solution of the same class of equations. Finally, the convergence of the method is discussed.     

Superconvergence of the iterated collocation methods for Hammerstein equations

In this paper, we analyse the iterated collocation method for Hammerstein equations with smooth and weakly singular kernels. The paper expands the study which began in [16] concerning the superconvergence of the iterated Galerkin method for Hammerstein equations. We obtain in this paper a similar superconvergence result for the iterated collocation method for Hammerstein equations. We also discuss the discrete collocation method for weakly singular Hammerstein equations. Some discrete collocation methods for Hammerstein equations with smooth kernels were given previously in [3, 18].     

Numerical method for the solution of integral equations in a problem with directional derivative for the Laplace equation outside open curves

By using a simple layer potential and an angular potential, one can reduce the problem with a directional derivative for the Laplace equation outside several open curves on the plane to a uniquely solvable system of integral equations that consists of an integral equation of the second kind and additional integral conditions. The kernel in the integral equation of the second kind contains singularities and can be represented as a Cauchy singular integral. We suggest a numerical method for solving a system of integral equations. Quadrature formulas for the logarithmic and angular potentials are represented. The quadrature formula for the logarithmic potential preserves the property of its continuity across the boundary (open curves).     

Generalized cauchy singular integral for the boundary values of two-dimensional flows in an anisotropic-inhomogeneous layer of a porous medium

We consider the main boundary value problems of two-dimensional stationary flows in an anisotropic-inhomogeneous layer with an arbitrary (not necessarily symmetric) permeability tensor. We present Cauchy integrals and Cauchy type integrals whose kernels can be expressed via the fundamental solutions of the main equations and have a hydrodynamic meaning. This permits one to develop the method of singular integral equations for solving two-dimensional boundary value problems. The considered problems can be used as mathematical models, in particular, for the extraction of fluids (water, oil) from natural layers of soil with complicated geological structure.
