THE COLLOCATION METHODS FOR SINGULAR INTEGRAL EQUATIONS WITH CAUCHY KERNELS

This paper applies the singular integral operators, singular quadrature operators and discretization matrices associated with singular integral equations with Cauchy kernels, which are established in 1], to give a unified framework for various collocation methods of numerical solutions of singular integral equations with Cauchy kernels. Under the framework, the coincidence of the direct quadrature method and the indirect quadrature method is very simple and obvious.
