Solving Fredholm Equation of the second kind












4












$begingroup$


Consider the Fredholm Equation of the second kind,



$$phi(x) = 3 + lambda int_{0}^{pi} text{cos}(x-s) , phi(s) ,ds$$



Where the analytical solution is found as,



$$phi(x) = 3 + frac{6lambda}{1 - lambda frac{pi}{2}},text{sin}(x)$$



How could one use Mathematica to find a numerical solution to the same integral equation by using the method of successive approximations (i.e. the Neumann series approach)?

          Use DSolve



          PHI=DSolveValue[[Phi][x] == 3 + [Lambda] Integrate[ Cos[x - s] [Phi][s], {s, 0, Pi}], [Phi],x]
          
(*Function[{x}, (3 (-2 + [Pi] [Lambda] - 4 [Lambda] Sin[x]))/(-2 + [Pi] [Lambda])]*)


          The solution can be further used in the form PHI[x].

          Following
          Weisstein, Eric W. "Integral Equation Neumann Series." From MathWorld--A Wolfram Web Resource. http://mathworld.wolfram.com/IntegralEquationNeumannSeries.html, the Neumann series approximation is:



          n = 10; (* for example *)
          
[Phi][x_, 0] = 3;
          
Do[[Phi][x_, j_] = 3 + [Lambda] Integrate[Cos[x - p] [Phi][p, j - 1], {p, 0, [Pi]}], {j, n}]


          The last term in the series [Phi][x,n] is the approximation to [Phi][x].



          Here is what Mathematica returns for [Phi][x,10].



          phi_of_ten



          To investigate convergence, I guess we could look at the difference [Phi][x,n] - [Phi][x] as n gets large, since you know [Phi][x].

            Made some edits to my answer. Had a couple of typos. Within a function definition it is x_, otherwise x. Also, [Phi][x,j] needs two arguments, one for x and one for the jth approximation. Hope its clear.

            Please clear out your variables, perhaps with Evaluation: Quit Kernel: Local. To print the final (nth) value: [Phi][x, n].

            Made some edits to my answer. Had a couple of typos. Within a function definition it is x_, otherwise x. Also, [Phi][x,j] needs two arguments, one for x and one for the jth approximation. Hope its clear.

          What other Star Trek series did the main TNG cast show up in?

          Berlina muro

          Image
          La berlina muro ĉe Bethaniendamm, 1986 La berlina muro aŭ simple la muro [1] , nomita ankaŭ "kontraŭfaŝisma remparo" en propaganda lingvo de la iama Germana Demokratia Respubliko, estis parto de la interngermana limo, kiu dividis de la 13-a de aŭgusto 1961 ĝis la 9-a de novembro 1989 okcidentan Berlinon de la orienta parto de la urbo kaj de la ĉirkaŭa tereno de la GDR. Ĝi estis unu el la plej famaj simboloj de la malvarma milito kaj de la disdivido de Germanio. Pli ol simpla muro, la berlina muro estis fakte tuta defendokonstruaĵo kun du muroj, ena malplena strio, rondirvojo, gardturoj kaj alarmsistemoj. Dum la provo transiri la severe garditan limon al okcidenta Berlino multaj homoj estis mortigitaj. La preciza nombro de viktimoj estas pridisputita kaj ne certa; la nombroj anoncataj varias inter 86 kaj 238 mortintoj. La malplifortiĝo de Sovetunio kaj la politiko de liberigo gvidita de Miĥail Gorbaĉov ebligis al la orientgermanoj faligi la 9-an de novembro 1989 l...
