      For the solver mentioned in the title a scheme is presented based on polynomical interpolation to approximate matrices from the discretization of the integral operators in question. An approximation matrix is obtained by partitioning the domain on which the kernel function is defined into subdomains of different sizes and approximating the kernel function at each subdomain by interpolation polynomial at the Chebyshev points. A comparison of the present method with a wavelet-like method shows that the title method requires less memory and is more accurate. The scheme, an error analysis and numerical experiments using six kernel functions are presented with many details.
