Application of Splines of the Seventh Order Approximation to the Solution of the Fredholm Integral Equations with Weekly Singularity
Authors: ,
Abstract: We consider the construction of a numerical solution to the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind with weekly singularity using polynomial spline approximations of the seventh order of approximation. The support of the basis spline of the seventh order of approximation occupies seven grid intervals. In the beginning, in the middle, and at the end of the integration interval, we apply various modifications of the basis splines of the seventh order of approximation. We use the Gaussian-type quadrature formulas to calculate the integrals with a weakly singularity. It is assumed that the solution of the integral equation is sufficiently smooth. The advantages of using splines of the seventh order of approximation include the use of a small number of grid nodes to achieve the required error of approximation. Numerical examples of the application of spline approximations of the seventh order to solve integral equations are given.
