Fredholm Integral Equation (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In mathematics, the Fredholm integral equation is an integral equation whose solution gives rise to Fredholm theory, the study of Fredholm kernels and Fredholm operators. The integral equation was studied by Ivar Fredholm.Integral equations, most generally, are common and take many specific forms (Fourier, LaPlace, Hankel, etc.). They each differ in their kernels (defined below). What is distinctive about Fredholm integral equations is that they are integral equations in which the integration limits are constants (they do not include the variable). This is contrast to Volterra integral equations.
