Abstract

This paper is devoted to the numerical treatment of two-dimensional Fredholm integral equations, defined on general curvilinear domains of the plane. A Nyström method, based on a suitable Gauss-like cubature formula, recently proposed in the literature is proposed. The convergence, stability and good conditioning of the method are proved in suitable subspaces of continuous functions of Sobolev type. The cubature formula, on which the Nyström method is constructed, has an error that behaves like the best polynomial approximation of the integrand function. Consequently, it is also shown how the Nyström method inherits this property and, hence, the proposed numerical strategy is fast when the involved known functions are smooth. Some numerical examples illustrate the efficiency of the method, also in comparison with other methods known in the literature.
