Chebyshev Wavelet Method for Numerical Solution of Fredholm Integral Equations of the First Kind

A computational method for solving Fredholm integral equations of the first kind is presented. The method utilizes Chebyshev wavelets constructed on the unit interval as basis in Galerkin method and reduces solving the integral equation to solving a system of algebraic equations. The properties of C...
