Absolute and uniform convergence of eigenfunction expansions of integral operators with kernels admitting derivative discontinuities on the diagonals (Q2473751)

Consider the integral operator \[ (Af)(x) = \int_{0}^{1-x}A(1-x,t)f(t)\,dt + \alpha\int_{0}^{x}A(x,t)f(t)\,dt,\qquad x\in[0,1], \] where the kernel \(A(x,t)\) is \((n+l)\)-times continuously differentiable with respect to \(x\), once with respect to \(t\) for \(0\leq t \leq x \leq 1\), and \[ \frac{\partial^{j}}{\partial x^{j}}A(x,t)|_{t=x} = \delta_{n-1,j},\qquad j=0,\ldots,n, \] \(\delta_{i,j}\) is the Kronecker delta, and \(\alpha\) is an arbitrary number, \(\alpha^{2}\neq1\). Operators of this form were first studied by \textit{A. P. Khromov} [Math. Notes 64, No. 6, 804--813 (1998); translation from Mat. Zametki 64, No. 6, 932--942 (1998; Zbl 0938.45009)]. In the paper under review, an analog of the Szasz's theorem on the absolute convergence of trigonometric series is proved for expansions in the eigen and associated functions of this operator.
