Abstract

Abstract : In this paper, Sinc-collocation method is used to approximate the solution of weakly singular nonlinear Fredholm integral equations of the first kind. Some of the important advantages of this method are rate of convergence of an approximate solution and simplicity for performing even in the presence of singularities. The convergence analysis of the proposed method is proved by preparing the theorems which show the errors decay exponentially and guarantee the applicability of that. Finally, several numerical examples are considered to show the capabilities, validity, and accuracy of the numerical scheme.
