A multi-domain hybrid spectral collocation method for nonlinear Volterra integral equations with weakly singular kernel

In this paper, we propose a multi-domain hybrid spectral collocation method for the nonlinear Volterra integral equations (VIEs), whose solutions exhibit weak singularities at the endpoint t=0. In order to efficiently approximate the weakly singular solutions, we divide the interval [0,T] into N subintervals and use the Gauss points of the generalized log orthogonal functions as the collocation points to approximate the weakly singular integral term in the first subinterval. In the remaining subintervals, we use Legendre and Jacobi Gauss points as the collocation points to approximate the corresponding integral terms. We also provide a rigorous hp-version convergence analysis for the hybrid spectral collocation method under L2-norm. A series of examples demonstrate our method is particularly suitable for solutions that have weak singularities at one endpoint.

On the Ulam stabilities of nonlinear integral equations and integro‐differential equations

In this research, two systems of nonlinear Volterra integral equation and Volterra integro‐differential equation were considered. New results in sense of Ulam stabilities in relation to these two systems were proved on a finite interval. The proof of the results on the Ulam stabilities of that classes of the equations are based on the nonlinear alternative related to Banach's contraction principle. The outcomes of this research give new contribution to the theory of Ulam stabilities.

Regularization of the Solution of a Nonlinear Integral Equation of the First Kind

Integral equations, the main branch of mathematics, are widely used in physics, engineering, mechanics, control theory and other fields. Related to the application of integral equations, new fields are developing, such as economics, some sections of biology, etc. The theory of integral equations mainly developed in the late nineteenth-early twentieth century, starting with Vito Volterra (1982, 1986), Eric Ivar Fredholm (2010), David Hilbert, Erhard Schmidt, etc. scientists began to study it. Nevertheless, within the framework of mathematical concepts that existed before the first half of the twentieth century, such problems were considered incorrect because a small change in the given functions led to a greater change in the desired functions. The Volterra equation of the first kind is an integral equation that has an exact solution only in some cases. The limit of integration has been carried out in very small quantities on non-classical linear and nonlinear integral equations with variable limits and the construction of solutions in these works is based on numerical methods. Therefore, for the so-called non-classical Volterra integral equations, it is relevant to determine the conditions that ensure the uniqueness and regularization of their solutions. In this paper, the uniqueness of the solution of the non-classical nonlinear integral Volterra equation of the first kind is resolved. The aim of the study is to solve the non-classical Volterra integral equation of the first kind, that is, to determine the conditions that ensure the uniqueness of the solution of the nonlinear non-classical Volterra integral equation of the first kind. The proposed methods can be used for the study of integral, integral-differential equations such as the Volterra integral equation of the first kind, as well as for the qualitative study of some applied processes in physics, ecology, medicine, geophysics, and the theory of control of complex systems.

Optimal Control of Non-linear Volterra Integral Equations with Weakly Singular Kernels Based on Genocchi Polynomials and Collocation Method

AbstractWe consider a problem of finding the best way to control a system, known as an optimal control problem (OCP), governed by non-linear Volterra Integral Equations with Weakly Singular kernels. The equations are based on Genocchi polynomials. Depending on the applicable properties of Genocchi polynomials, the considered OCP is converted to a non-linear programming problem (NLP). This method is speedy and provides a highly accurate solution with great precision using a small number of basis functions. The convergence analysis of the approach is also provided. The accuracy and flawless performance of the proposed technique and verification of the theory are examined with some examples.

Existence and stability of solution for a nonlinear Volterra integral equation with binary relation via fixed point results

The real-world problems that can be resolved by a dynamic mathematical model is an analogous form of a complex integral equation. In this article, we intend to exhibit the solution to a non-homogeneous, nonlinear Volterra integral equation endowed with an arbitrary binary relation utilizing the fixed point solution that is originally proved for a multivalued map and then reduced to a single valued self map. The results proved and the application demonstrated is an added asset to the present literature and can significantly contribute in determining the existence of a solution for a dynamic mathematical model in the form of a Volterra integral equation equipped with an arbitrary binary relation via fixed point findings. Furthermore, the stability of the solution of the Volterra integral equation is verified using the Hyers–Ulam stability concept.

In the context of uniformly convex Banach space, this paper focuses on examining the strong convergence of the F* iterative algorithm to the fixed point of a strongly pseudocontractive mapping. Furthermore, we demonstrate through numerical methods that the F* iterative algorithm converges strongly and faster than other current iterative schemes in the literature and extends to the fixed point of a strong pseudocontractive mapping. Finally, under a nonlinear quadratic Volterra integral equation, the application of our findings is shown.

A general collocation analysis for weakly singular Volterra integral equations with variable exponent

Abstract Piecewise polynomial collocation of weakly singular Volterra integral equations (VIEs) of the second kind has been extensively studied in the literature, where integral kernels of the form $(t-s)^{-\alpha }$ for some constant $\alpha \in (0,1)$ are considered. Variable-order fractional-derivative differential equations currently attract much research interest, and in Zheng & Wang (2020, An optimal-order numerical approximation to variable-order space-fractional diffusion equations on uniform or graded meshes. SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 58, 330–352), such a problem is transformed to a weakly singular VIE whose kernel has the above form with variable $\alpha = \alpha (t)$, then solved numerically by piecewise linear collocation, but it is unclear whether this analysis could be extended to more general problems or to polynomials of higher degree. In the present paper, the general theory (existence, uniqueness, regularity of solutions) of variable-exponent weakly singular VIEs is developed using novel techniques. These results then underpin an error analysis of collocation methods where piecewise polynomials of any degree can be used. This error analysis is also novel—it makes no use of the usual resolvent representation, which is a key technique in the error analysis of collocation methods for VIEs in the current research literature. Furthermore, all the above analysis for a scalar VIE can be extended to certain nonlinear VIEs and to systems of VIEs. The sharpness of the theoretical error bounds obtained for the collocation methods is demonstrated by numerical examples.

In this manuscript, we investigate some convergence and stability results for reckoning fixed points using a faster iterative scheme in a Banach space. Also, weak and strong convergence are discussed for close contraction mappings in a Banach space and for Suzuki generalized nonexpansive mapping in a uniformly convex Banach space. Our method opens the door to many expansions in the problems of monotone variational inequalities, image restoration, convex optimization, and split convex feasibility. Moreover, some experimental examples were conducted to gauge the usefulness and efficiency of the technique compared with the iterative methods in the literature. Finally, the proposed approach is applied to solve the nonlinear Volterra integral equation with a delay.

This technique was applied to discuss some convergence and stability results for almost contraction mapping in a Banach space and for Suzuki generalized nonexpansive mapping in a uniformly convex Banach space. Moreover, some numerical experiments were investigated to illustrate the behavior and efficacy of our iterative scheme. The proposed method converges faster than symmetrical iterations of the S algorithm, Thakur algorithm and K* algorithm. Eventually, as an application, the nonlinear Volterra integral equation with delay was solved using the suggested method.

Advancements in Hybrid Fixed Point Results and F-Contractive Operators

The aim of this manuscript is to introduce a novel concept called Jaggi-type hybrid (ϕ -F)-contraction and establish some fixed point results for this class of contractions in the framework of G-metric space.

By using the constructed example, it is observed that the results established herein cannot be deduced from their analogs in previously announced results in the literature. As an application, the existence and uniqueness of solutions to certain nonlinear Volterra integral equations are investigated to illustrate the utility of our obtained results.

Numerical Solutions of Duffing Van der Pol Equations on the Basis of Hybrid Functions

In the present work, a new approximated method for solving the nonlinear Duffing-Van der Pol (D-VdP) oscillator equation is suggested. The approximate solution of this equation is introduced with two separate techniques. First, we convert nonlinear D-VdP equation to a nonlinear Volterra integral equation of the second kind (VIESK) using integration, and then, we approximate it with the hybrid Legendre polynomials and block-pulse function (HLBPFs). The next technique is to convert this equation into a system of ordinary differential equation of the first order (SODE) and solve it according to the proposed approximate method. The main goal of the presented technique is to transform these problems into a nonlinear system of algebraic equations using the operational matrix obtained from the integration, which can be solved by a proper numerical method; thus, the solution procedures are either reduced or simplified accordingly. The benefit of the hybrid functions is that they can be adjusted for different values of n and m , in addition to being capable of yield greater correct numerical answers than the piecewise constant orthogonal function, for the results of integral equations. Resolved governance equation using the Runge-Kutta fourth order algorithm with the stepping time 0.01 s via numerical solution.
