A scheme is constructed for the numerical solution of a singular integral equation with a logarithmic kernel by the method of orthogonal polynomials. The proposed schemes for an approximate solution of the problem are based on the representation of the solution function in the form of a linear combination of the Chebyshev orthogonal polynomials and spectral relations that allows to obtain simple analytical expressions for the singular component of the equation. The expansion coefficients of the solution in terms of the Chebyshev polynomial basis are calculated by solving a system of linear algebraic equations. The results of numerical experiments show that on a grid of 20 –30 points, the error of the approximate solution reaches the minimum limit due to the error in representing real floating-point numbers.

AbstractThe principal result of this paper states sufficient conditions for the convergence of the solutions of certain linear algebraic equations to the solution of a (linear) singular integral equation with Cauchy kernel. The motivation for this study has been the need to provide a convergence theory for a collocation method applied to the singular integral equation taken over the arc (−1, 1). However, much of the analysis will be applicable both to other approximation methods and to singular integral equations taken over other arcs or contours. An estimate for the rate of convergence is also given.

AbstractA method of approximate solution of the linear one-dimensional Fredholm integral equation of the second kind is constructed. With the help of the Steklov averaging operator the integral equation is approximated by a system of linear algebraic equations. On the basis of the approximation used an increased order convergence solution has been obtained.

AbstractMultidimensional singular integral equations (SIEs) play a key role in many areas of applied science such as aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, etc. Solving an equation with a singular kernel can be a challenging problem. Therefore, a plethora of methods have been proposed in the theory so far. However, many of them are discussed in the simplest cases of one–dimensional equations defined on the finite intervals. In this study, a very efficient method based on trigonometric interpolating polynomials is proposed to derive an approximate solution of a SIE with a multiplicative Cauchy kernel defined on the Euclidean plane. Moreover, an estimation of the error of the approximated solution is presented and proved. This assessment and an illustrating example show the effectiveness of our proposal.
