On Discrete Superconvergence Properties of Spline Collocation Methods for Nonlinear Volterra Integral Equations

It is shown that the error corresponding to certain spline collocation approximations for nonlinear Volterra integral equations of the second kind is the solution of a nonlinearly perturbed linear Volterra integral equation. On the basis of this result it is possible to derive general estimates for the order of convergence of the spline solution at the underlying mesh points. Extensions of these techniques to other types of Volterra equations are indicated.     

Application of 2D-BPFs to nonlinear integral equations

In this study, an efficient method is presented for solving nonlinear two-dimensional Volterra integral equations (VIEs).

Solving nonlinear mixed Volterra–Fredholm integral equations with two dimensional block-pulse functions using direct method

Few numerical methods such as projection methods, time collocation method, trapezoidal Nystrom method, Adomian decomposition method and some else are used for mixed Volterra–Fredholm integral equations. The main purpose of this paper is to use the piecewise constant two-dimensional block-pulse functions (2D-BPFs) and their operational matrices for solving mixed nonlinear Volterra–Fredholm integral equations of the first kind (VFIE). This method leads to a linear system of equations by expanding unknown function as 2D-BPFs with unknown coefficients. The properties of 2D-BPFs are then utilized to evaluate the unknown coefficients. The error analysis and rate of convergence are given. Finally, some numerical examples show the implementation and accuracy of this method.     

On Volterra partial integral equations in the space of continuous functions of three variables

It is well known that any Volterra integral equation of the second kind with compact operator is uniquely solvable. Partial integral operators are not compact, even in the general case of continuous kernels. Unique solvability conditions for Volterra partial integral equations of the second kind in the space of continuous functions of three variables are considered. Conditions for a Volterra partial integral equation to be equivalent to a three-dimensional Volterra integral equation with compact operator are obtained. Continuum analogues of matrix equations for some problems of scattering theory are reduced to the Volterra partial integral equations under examination. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika i Ee Prilozheniya (Contemporary Mathematics and Its Applications), Vol. 38, Suzdal Conference-2004, Part 3, 2006.     

Solution of nonlinear weakly singular Volterra integral equations using the fractional‐order Legendre functions and pseudospectral method

In this article, our main goal is to render an idea to convert a nonlinear weakly singular Volterra integral equation to a non‐singular one by new fractional‐order Legendre functions. The fractional‐order Legendre functions are generated by change of variable on well‐known shifted Legendre polynomials. We consider a general form of singular Volterra integral equation of the second kind. Then the fractional Legendre–Gauss–Lobatto quadratures formula eliminates the singularity of the kernel of the integral equation. Finally, the Legendre pseudospectral method reduces the solution of this problem to the solution of a system of algebraic equations. This method also can be utilized on fractional differential equations as well. The comparison of results of the presented method and other numerical solutions shows the efficiency and accuracy of this method. Also, the obtained maximum error between the results and exact solutions shows that using the present method leads to accurate results and fast convergence for solving nonlinear weakly singular Volterra integral equations.

Asymptotic expansions for multistep methods applied to nonlinear Volterra integral equations of the second kind

Summary This paper deals with linear multistep methods applied to nonlinear, nonsingular Volterra integral equations of the second kind. Analogously to the theory of W.B. Gragg, the existence of asymptotic expansions in the stepsizeh is proved. Under certain conditions only even powers ofh occur. As a special case, the midpoint rule is treated, a short numerical example for the applicability to extrapolation techniques is given.

A nonclassical Volterra linear integral equation of the first kind describing the dynamics of an developing system with allowance for its age structure is considered.

Boundary value methods for Volterra integral and integro-differential equations

New and effective quadrature rules generated by boundary value methods are introduced. We employ the introduced quadrature rules to construct quadrature methods for the second kind Volterra integral equations and Volterra integro-differential equations. These methods are shown to be effective and possess excellent convergence properties. The nonlinear multigrid method is applied to solve the discrete systems derived from the introduced numerical scheme. Numerical simulations are presented and confirm the efficiency and accuracy of the methods.

Volterra integral equations and evolution equations with an integral condition

We suggest a simple method for reducing problems with an integral condition for evolution equations to a Volterra integral equation of the first kind. For Volterra equations of the convolution type, we indicate necessary and sufficient solvability conditions for the case in which the right-hand side lies in some classes of functions of finite smoothness. We use these conditions to construct examples of nonexistence of a local solution for the heat equation with an integral condition.     

Stability of quadrature rule methods for first kind volterra integral equations

Gladwin [4] proved that Newton-Gregory formulas of order larger than 2 produce unstable algorithms when applied to nonlinear Volterra integral equations of the first kind. It is shown that similar results are true for all interpolatory quadrature rules using equidistant nodes. Upper bounds for the error order of quadrature rules, which lead to stable methods are given. Some higher order stable methods are indicated.

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.     

Recent results on blow-up and quenching for nonlinear Volterra equations

In this survey paper, the author examines nonlinear Volterra integral equations of the second kind with solutions that blow-up or quench. The focus is on analytical results, although a few words about numerical solutions for such equations are provided. The integral equations arise in the mathematical modeling of thermal processes within a reactive–diffusive medium. The scope of this review is on the published literature between 1997 and 2005, serving as an update to a previous review by the same author.
