The paper deals with three-term recurrence relations for Boubaker and related polynomials, as well as some properties including zero distribution of such kinds of polynomials. Also, an application of these polynomials for obtaining approximate analytical solution of Love’s integral equation is presented. This Fredholm integral equation of the second kind appeared in an electrostatic problem ana...

This paper makes a short study of Fredholm integral equations related to potential theory and elasticity, with a view to preparing the ground for their exploitation in the numerical solution of difficult boundary-value problems. Attention is drawn to the advantages of Fredholm's first equation and of Green's boundary formula. The latter plays a fundamental and hitherto unrecognized role in the ...

April, 2005 Abstract. A model with wealth accumulation subject to i.i.d. random shocks is examined. The transfer function shows what kt+1 wealth at t+ 1 would be, given kt, with no shock. It has a positive slope, but indeterminate concavity/convexity. The stationary distribution satis…es a Fredholm integral equation and can be examined by direct analysis of the stochastic process or via the Fre...

The Fredholm–Volterra integral equation of the second kind with continuous kernels with respect to position and time, is solved numerically, using the Collocation and Galerkin methods. Also the error, in each case, is estimated.

We investigate the τ -function of the quadrilateral lattice using the nonlocal ∂̄-dressing method, and we show that it can be identified with the Fredholm determinant of the integral equation which naturally appears within that approach.

The mixed Dirichlet-Neumann problem for the Laplace equation in an unbounded plane domain with cuts (cracks) is studied. The Dirichlet condition is given on closed curves making up the boundary of the domain, while the Neumann condition is specified on the cuts. The existence of a classical solution is proved by potential theory and a boundary integral equation method. The integral representati...

We study the Fredholm minors associated with a Fredholm equation of the second type. We present a couple of new linear recursion relations involving the nth and n−1th minors, whose solution is a representation of the nth minor as an n × n determinant of resolvents. The latter is given a simple interpretation in terms of a path integral over non-interacting fermions. We also provide an explicit ...

This paper is concerned with weak solution of a mixed boundary value problem for the biharmonic equation in the plane. Using Green’s formula, the problem is converted into a system of Fredholm integral equations for the unknown data on different part of the boundary. Existence and uniqueness of the solutions of the system of boundary integral equations are established in appropriate Sobolev spa...
