A Jacobi-collocation method for second kind Volterra integral equations with a smooth kernel (Q1725252): Difference between revisions

Summary: The purpose of this paper is to provide a Jacobi-collocation method for solving second kind Volterra integral equations with a smooth kernel. This method leads to a fully discrete integral operator. First, it is shown that the fully discrete integral operator is stable in both \(L^\infty\) and weighted \(L^2\) norms. Then, the proposed approach is proved to arrive at an optimal (the most possible) convergent order in both norms. One numerical example demonstrates the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.
