A Fredholm equation is an integral equation in which the term containing the kernel function (defined below) has constants as integration limits. A closely related form is the Volterra integral equation which has variable integral limits. An inhomogeneous Fredholm equation of the first kind is written as.
Fredholm theory. In mathematics, Fredholm theory is a theory of integral equations. In the narrowest sense, Fredholm theory concerns itself with the solution of the Fredholm integral equation. In a broader sense, the abstract structure of Fredholm's theory is given in terms of the spectral theory of Fredholm operators and Fredholm kernels on ...
Linear: An integral equation is linear if the unknown function u (x) and its integrals appear linear in the equation. [ 1 ] Hence, an example of a linear equation would be: 1 As a note on naming convention: i) u (x) is called the unknown function, ii) f (x) is called a known function, iii) K (x,t) is a function of two variables and often called ...
Fredholm alternative. In mathematics, the Fredholm alternative, named after Ivar Fredholm, is one of Fredholm's theorems and is a result in Fredholm theory. It may be expressed in several ways, as a theorem of linear algebra, a theorem of integral equations, or as a theorem on Fredholm operators. Part of the result states that a non-zero ...
is the derivative of the Green's function along the inward-pointing unit normal vector ^. The integration is performed on the boundary, with measure. The function () is given by the unique solution to the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind,
In mathematics, Fredholm operators are certain operators that arise in the Fredholm theory of integral equations.They are named in honour of Erik Ivar Fredholm.By definition, a Fredholm operator is a bounded linear operator T : X → Y between two Banach spaces with finite-dimensional kernel and finite-dimensional (algebraic) cokernel = / , and with closed range .
Fredholm's theorem. In mathematics, Fredholm's theorems are a set of celebrated results of Ivar Fredholm in the Fredholm theory of integral equations. There are several closely related theorems, which may be stated in terms of integral equations, in terms of linear algebra, or in terms of the Fredholm operator on Banach spaces.
In order to understand what may happen, we have to keep in mind that solving such a linear inverse problem amount to solving a Fredholm integral equation of the first kind: = (,) () where K {\displaystyle K} is the kernel, x {\displaystyle x} and y {\displaystyle y} are vectors of R 2 {\displaystyle R^{2}} , and Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } is a ...
