Review text

The author considers the first-kind integral equation \[ \int^{+\infty}_0 K(x,t)u(t)dt=f(x),\quad x>0, \] with the kernel \(K(x,t)\) of a certain form and with the right-hand side \(f(x)\) to be continuous and absolutely integrable on \((0,+\infty)\) as well as vanishing as \(x\to+\infty\). The main result of the short paper is the explicit representation of the unique solution in the form \[ u(x)={2\over\pi}\int^{+\infty}_0 y(t)\sin xt dt, \] where the function \(y(x)\) is expressed through the Heaviside function \(H(x)\) and the gamma function \(\Gamma(x)\).
