Presents an aspect of activity in integral equations methods for the solution of Volterra equations for those who need to solve real-world problems. Since there are few known analytical methods leading to closed-form solutions, the emphasis is on numerical techniques. The major points of the analytical methods used to study the properties of the solution are presented in the first part of the book. These techniques are important for gaining insight into the qualitative behavior of the solutions and for designing effective numerical methods. The second part of the book is devoted entirely to numerical methods. The author has chosen the simplest possible setting for the discussion, the space of real functions of real variables. The text is supplemented by examples and exercises.

This monograph presents the theory and modern numerical analysis of Volterra integral and integro-differential equations, including equations with weakly singular kernels. While the research worker will find an up-to-date account of recent developments of numerical methods for such equations, including an extensive bibliography, the authors have tried to make the book accessible to the non-specialist possessing only a limited knowledge of numerical analysis. After an introduction to the theory of Volterra equations and to numerical integration, the book covers linear methods and Runge-Kutta methods, collocation methods based on polynomial spline functions, stability of numerical methods, and it surveys computer programs for Volterra integral and integro-differential equations.

Collocation based on piecewise polynomial approximation represents a powerful class of methods for the numerical solution of initial-value problems for functional differential and integral equations arising in a wide spectrum of applications, including biological and physical phenomena. The present book introduces the reader to the general principles underlying these methods and then describes in detail their convergence properties when applied to ordinary differential equations, functional equations with (Volterra type) memory terms, delay equations, and differential-algebraic and integral-algebraic equations. Each chapter starts with a self-contained introduction to the relevant theory of the class of equations under consideration. Numerous exercises and examples are supplied, along with extensive historical and bibliographical notes utilising the vast annotated reference list of over 1300 items. In sum, Hermann Brunner has written a treatise that can serve as an introduction for students, a guide for users, and a comprehensive resource for experts.
