Integral equations of Fredholm type with special functions (Q5939127)

The authors study several methods of solving one-dimensional integral equations of Fredholm type. Riemann-Liouville as well as Weyl fractional integral operators are used to reduce this class of integral equation to generalized Stieltjes transform which is then inverted to obtain the required solution with Lauricella function in the kernel. Also, Mellin transform theory is used to solve a Fredholm integral equation whose kernel involves the product of the \(H\)-function and a general class of polynomials. Some special cases of the main theorems are also cited.
