Singular integral equations with logarithmic kernels
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2010
Summary
Closed form solutions are obtained for a class of singular integral equations of the first kind with difference kernels. The kernel function is the sum of a polynomial and a second polynomial multiplied by a logarithm, with the possible addition of a strong singularity. A wider class of kernels have approximate representations in one of the above forms, where, for a specified accuracy, the polynomial orders will depend on the range of any parameter present. For example, the modified Bessel function kernels K0(|γx|), K1(|γx|)sgn x in the interval |x| ≤ 2 can be so expressed using 16th order polynomials with a maximum error 10-5 for real γ in the range 0 < γ ≤ 4.
