Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0732.00012.] The method the author uses to solve the Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation with respect to a bounded region with a smooth boundary is the simplest boundary element method relative to midpoint collocation and piecewise constant approximations. The author shows how discrete norms and a coercivity result proved directly for the discretized equations can be used to prove the convergence of the midpoint collocation method for the boundary integral equation.
