Solution of Cauchy-Type Singular Integral Equations of the First Kind with Zeros of Jacobi Polynomials as Interpolation Nodes

Of concern in this paper is the numerical solution of Cauchy-type singular integral equations of the first kind at a discrete set of points. A quadrature rule based on Lagrangian interpolation, with the zeros of Jacobi polynomials as nodes, is developed to solve these equations. The problem is redu...
