Multistep Methods of the Hybrid Type and Their Application to Solve the Second Kind Volterra Integral Equation
There are some classes of methods for solving integral equations of the variable boundaries. It is known that each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. By taking into account the disadvantages of known methods, here was constructed a new method free from them. For this, we have used multistep methods of advanced and hybrid types for the construction methods, with the best properties of the intersection of them. We also show some connection of the methods constructed here with the methods which are using solving of the initial-value problem for ODEs of the first order. Some of the constructed methods have been applied to solve model problems. A formula is proposed to determine the maximal values of the order of accuracy for the stable and unstable methods, constructed here. Note that to construct the new methods, here we propose to use the system of algebraic equations which allows us to construct methods with the best properties by using the minimal volume of the computational works at each step. For the construction of more exact methods, here we have proposed to use the multistep second derivative method, which has comparisons with the known methods. We have constructed some formulas to determine the maximal order of accuracy, and also determined the necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of the methods constructed here. One can proved by multistep methods, which are usually applied to solve the initial-value problem for ODE, demonstrating the applications of these methods to solve Volterra integro-differential equations. For the illustration of the results, we have constructed some concrete methods, and one of them has been applied to solve a model equation.
