The intrinsic properties, including logarithmic convexity (concavity), of the modified Bessel functions of the first kind and some other related functions are obtained. Several inequalities involving functions under discussion are established.     

Convergence in the integral metric of the general projective method for solving singular integral equations of the first kind with the Cauchy kernel

We study a projective method for solving singular integral equations of the first kind with the Cauchy kernel. Depending on the index of the equation, we introduce pairs of weight spaces which represent a restriction of the space of summable functions. We prove the correctness of the stated problem. We obtain sufficient conditions for the convergence of the projective method in the integral metric.     

On an identity for zeros of Bessel functions

In this paper our aim is to present an elementary proof of an identity of Calogero concerning the zeros of Bessel functions of the first kind. Moreover, by using our elementary approach we present a new identity for the zeros of Bessel functions of the first kind, which in particular reduces to some other new identities. We also show that our method can be applied for the zeros of other special functions, like Struve functions of the first kind, and modified Bessel functions of the second kind.     

On the stability of the spline collocation method for a class of integral equations of the first kind

This paper is concerned with the stability of the spline collocation method for a class of integral equations of the first kind with logarithmic kernels. It is shown that a proper choice of the mesh size can be made in the numerical computation so that one will obtain an optimal rate of convergence for the approximate solutions.     

On Taylor-series expansion methods for the second kind integral equations

In this paper, we comment on the recent papers by Yuhe Ren et al. (1999) [1] and Maleknejad et al. (2006) [7] concerning the use of the Taylor series to approximate a solution of the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind as well as a solution of a system of Fredholm equations. The technique presented in Yuhe Ren et al. (1999) [1] takes advantage of a rapidly decaying convolution kernel k(|s−t|) as |s−t| increases. However, it does not apply to equations having other types of kernels. We present in this paper a more general Taylor expansion method which can be applied to approximate a solution of the Fredholm equation having a smooth kernel. Also, it is shown that when the new method is applied to the Fredholm equation with a rapidly decaying kernel, it provides more accurate results than the method in Yuhe Ren et al. (1999) [1]. We also discuss an application of the new Taylor-series method to a system of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind.

In this paper, we define a class of strongly connected digraph, called the k-walk- regular digraph, study some properties of it, provide its some algebraic characterization and point out that the 0-walk-regular digraph is the same as the walk-regular digraph discussed by Liu and Lin in 2010 and the D-walk-regular digraph is identical with the weakly distance-regular digraph defined by Comellas et al in 2004.     

An integral estimate of Bessel function and its application

In this paper the authors give a new integral estimate of the Bessel function,which is an extension of Calder(?)n-Zygmund's result.As an application of this result,we prove that the parameterized Marcinkiewicz integralμ_Ω~p with variable kernels is of type (2,2),where the kernel functionΩdoes not have any smoothness on the unit sphere in R~n.     

On the regularization of an equation of the first kind with a multiple integration operator

The zero-order Tikhonov regularization method as applied to an equation of the first kind with a multiple differentiation operator is considered for the case when the solution belongs to a class from the domain of the adjoint operator. An estimate of the error of the approximate solution in the uniform metric is obtained, which is sharp with respect to the order, and the order is established. It is proved that the proposed method is optimal with respect to the order. Unimprovable estimates of the order of the modulus of continuity of the inverse operator are obtained.     

Using Sinc-collocation method for solving weakly singular Fredholm integral equations of the first kind

In this paper, Sinc-collocation method is used to approximate the solution of weakly singular nonlinear Fredholm integral equations of the first kind. Some of the important advantages of this method are rate of convergence of an approximate solution and simplicity for performing even in the presence of singularities. The convergence analysis of the proposed method is proved by preparing the theorems which show the errors decay exponentially and guarantee the applicability of that. Finally, several numerical examples are considered to show the capabilities, validity, and accuracy of the numerical scheme.     

Direct method to solve Volterra integral equation of the first kind using operational matrix with block-pulse functions

This article proposes a simple efficient direct method for solving Volterra integral equation of the first kind. By using block-pulse functions and their operational matrix of integration, first kind integral equation can be reduced to a linear lower triangular system which can be directly solved by forward substitution. Some examples are presented to illustrate efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.

Mechanical quadrature methods and their extrapolation for solving first kind Abel integral equations

This paper presents high accuracy mechanical quadrature methods for solving first kind Abel integral equations. To avoid the ill-posedness of problem, the first kind Abel integral equation is transformed to the second kind Volterra integral equation with a continuous kernel and a smooth right-hand side term expressed by weakly singular integrals. By using periodization method and modified trapezoidal integration rule, not only high accuracy approximation of the kernel and the right-hand side term can be easily computed, but also two quadrature algorithms for solving first kind Abel integral equations are proposed, which have the high accuracy O(h²)$\mathrm{O}(h^2)$ and asymptotic expansion of the errors. Then by means of Richardson extrapolation, an approximation with higher accuracy order O(h³)$\mathrm{O}(h^3)$ is obtained. Moreover, an a posteriori error estimate for the algorithms is derived. Some numerical results show the efficiency of our methods.     

On smoothers for multigrid of the second kind

We study smoothers for the multigrid method of the second kind arising from Fredholm integral equations. Our model problems use nonlocal governing operators that enforce local boundary conditions. For discretization, we utilize the Nyström method with the trapezoidal rule. We find the eigenvalues of matrices associated to periodic, antiperiodic, and Dirichlet problems in terms of the nonlocality parameter and mesh size. Knowing explicitly the spectrum of the matrices enables us to analyze the behavior of smoothers. Although spectral analyses exist for finding effective smoothers for 1D elliptic model problems, to the best of our knowledge, a guiding spectral analysis is not available for smoothers of a multigrid of the second kind. We fill this gap in the literature. The Picard iteration has been the default smoother for a multigrid of the second kind. Jacobi‐like methods have not been considered as viable options. We propose two strategies. The first one focuses on the most oscillatory mode and aims to damp it effectively. For this choice, we show that weighted‐Jacobi relaxation is equivalent to the Picard iteration. The second strategy focuses on the set of oscillatory modes and aims to damp them as quickly as possible, simultaneously. Although the Picard iteration is an effective smoother for model nonlocal problems under consideration, we show that it is possible to find better than ones using the second strategy. We also shed some light on internal mechanism of the Picard iteration and provide an example where the Picard iteration cannot be used as a smoother.     

On the convergence of numerical methods for solving a Volterra bilinear equations of the first kind

A justification is given for the convergence of quadratures (namely, the right rectangle and midpoint rules) for the numerical solution of a Volterra bilinear equation of the first kind. Numerical results for some benchmark problems are presented.     

On the index integral transformation with Nicholson's function as the kernel

The integral transformation, which is associated with the Nicholson function as the kernel, is introduced and investigated in the paper. This transformation is an integral, where integration is with respect to an index of the sum of squares of Bessel functions of the first and second kind. Composition representations and relationships with the Meijer K-transform, the Kontorovich-Lebedev transform, the Mellin transform, and the sine Fourier transform are given. We also present boundedness properties, a Parseval type equality, and an inversion formula.     

New ring of a class of Bessel integral operators

In this paper, we introduce a new ring of ponderation functions which allowed us to describe and classify a large class of ring of Bessel integral operators. The main result is to give an explicit form of some ideals of such a ring of operators.
