1 Issue 5 volume 2, March.-April.215 Ieraive Algorihm o Solve a Sysem of Nonlinear Volerra-Fredholm Inegral Equaions Using Orhogonal Polynomials Dr. Sharefa Eisa Ali Alhazmi Umm Al-Qura Universiy College of Educaion for Girls a Al-Qunfudah Mahemaics deparmen, Macca, KSA sehazmi@uqu.edu.sa Absrac This paper focuses on numerical mehod used o solve a linear and nonlinear sysem of Volerra or Fredholm inegral equaions using Legendre and Chebyshev collocaion mehod. The mehod is based on replacemen of he unknown funcion by a reduced series o lengh size by discarding he high degree erms of he Legendre or Chebyshev polynomials. This lead o a sysem of linear or nonlinear algebraic equaions wih Legendre or Chebyshev coefficiens which will be solved using conjugae gradien or Newon ieraion mehod respecively. Thus, by solving he marix equaion, Legendre or Chebyshev coefficiens are obained. Some numerical examples are included o demonsrae he validiy and applicabiliy of he proposed echnique. Keywords: Sysem Volerra-Fredholm Inegral equaion, Legendre and Chebyshev polynomials, gradien mehod, Newon Mehod 1 Inroducion Volerra and Fredholm inegral equaions arise in many problems peraining o mahemaical physics like hea conducion problems. They plays an imporan role in many branches of linear and nonlinear analysis and heir applicaions in he heory of engineering, mechanics, physics, chemisry, asronomy, biology [3]-[7]. In [12]-[16], he auhors presened several mehod for solving linear and nonlinear Fredholm Inegral equaions. In [2, 1], chnii consider only he soluion of a linear Fredholm or Volerra-Fredholm inegral equaion wih singuler Kernel. There is no informaion wha happen for a sysem of nonlinear Volerra-Fredholm Inegral equaion wih singular kernel. To give a correc answer o his quesion, we will inroduce a echnique ha can be generalized o he case of singuler Kernel. Here, we will consider he case of a nonlinear Fredholm inegral equaions of he ype b Φ(x) + a K(x, s)f[s, Φ(s)]ds =, a x b, where K(x, s) and F(x, s) are known funcions, while Φ(x) is he unknown funcion. The funcion K(x, s) is known as he kernel of he Fredholm inegral equaion as play an imporan R S. Publicaion, rspublicaionhouse@gmail.com Page 563

2 Issue 5 volume 2, March.-April.215 role for solving he problem and i s can be smooh or singular funcion. A. Hammersein, who considered he case where K(x, s) is a symmeric and posiive Fredholm kernel, i.e. all is eigenvalues are posiive. If, in addiion, he funcion F(x, s) is coninuous and saisfies he condiion F(x, s) β 1 s + β 2, where β 1 and β 2 are posiive consans and β 1 is smaller han he firs eigenvalue of he kernel K(x, s), he Hammersein equaion has a leas one coninuous soluion. If, on he oher hand, F(x, s) happens o be a nondecreasing funcion of s for any fixed x from he inerval (a, b), Hammersein s equaion canno have more han one soluion. This propery holds also if F(x, s) saisfies he condiion F(x, s 1 ) F(x, s 2 ) β s 1 s 2, where he posiive consan β is smaller han he firs eigenvalue of he kernel K(x, s). Le us consider he following inegral equaion: Φ() = g() + η 1 K 1 (, s)f (Φ(s))ds + η 2 K 2 (, s)g(φ(s))ds, (1) where g, K 1 and K 2 are known funcions and η 1, η 2 are wo consans. and hen we will give more general case, and we will solve a sysem of nonlinear Volerra-Fredholm inegral equaion of he form, for i =,..., n: φ i (s) = f i (s) + j= s K ij (s, )F (φ i ())d + j= K ij (s, )G(φ i ())d (2) where F and G wo known nonlinear funcions, f i are known funcions and φ i are he unknown funcions mus be deermined. The paper is organized as follows. In secion 2, we presen some resuls abou Legendre polynomial. In secion 3, we ransform Fredholm inegral equaion o a sysem of algebraic equaions. In secion 4, some numerical examples are presened. We generalize our mehod o a nonlinear sysem 5, finally we conclude. 2 Legendre Polynomials Orhogonal polynomials are widely used in applicaions in mahemaics, mahemaical physics, engineering and compuer science. One of he mos common se of orhogonal polynomials is he Legendre polynomials. The Legendre polynomials P n saisfy he recurrence formula: (n + 1)P n+1 (x) = (2n + 1)xP n (x) np n (x), n N P (x) = 1 P 1 (x) = x An imporan propery of he Legendre polynomials is ha hey are orhogonal wih respec o he L 2 inner produc on he inerval [, 1]: P n (x)p m (x)dx = 2 2n + 1 δ nm R S.

3 Issue 5 volume 2, March.-April.215 where δ nm denoes he Kronecker dela, equal o 1 if m = n and o oherwise. The polynomials form a complee se on he inerval [, 1], and any piecewise smooh funcion may be expanded in a series of he polynomials. The series will converge a each poin o he usual mean of he righ and lef-hand limis. There are many applicaion of he Legendre polynomial, for insance, when we solve Laplace s equaion on a sphere, we wan soluions ha will be valid a he norh and souh poles (whose polar coordinaes are cos θ = ±1), herefore, he physically meaningful soluions o Laplace s equaion on a sphere are he polynomials of he firs kind. The Legendre and Chebyshev polynomials are used also o solve several problems of differenial equaions or inegral equaions, for insance he Legendre pesudospecral mehod is used o solve he delay and he diffusion differenial equaions ([8], [9]). Oher orhogonal polynomial like Chebyshev polynomials are used o inroduce an efficien modificaion of homoopy perurbaion mehod [1]. Also, he polynomial approximaion is used o solve high order linear Fredholm inegro differenial equaions wih consan coefficien [13] and ohers ([11], [17]-[19]). The Legendre polynomial is used o approximae any coninuous funcion. If we noe by P he se all real-valued polynomials on [, 1], hen P is a dense subspace of he space of coninuous funcion on he same inerval equipped wih he uniform norm, his is a paricular case of he heorem of f he Sone-Weiersrass. basing on hese properies of he Legendre polynomials we will solve he Fredholm inegral equaion. 3 Sysem of algebraic equaions The Fredholm-Volerra inegral equaion (1) is considered in his paper. funcion Φ using infinie series of Legendre polynomials is given by: The expansion of he Φ() = α n P n (), (3) n= where α n = (Φ(), P n ()). If we runcae he infinie series in Equaion(3) o only N + 1 erms, we obain N Φ() α n P n () = α T P (), (4) where α and P are marices given by n= α = [α,..., α n ], P = [P,..., P N ] T. (5) Subsiuing he runcaed series (4) ino Equaion(1) we obain α T P () = g() + η 1 K 1 (, s)f (α T P (s))ds + η 2 K 2 (, s)g(α T P (s))ds. (6) Using he Legendre collocaion poins defined by and subsiuing he variable by i defined in (7) o ge i = i, i =, 1,..., N, (7) N j α T P ( j ) = g( j ) + η 1 K 1 ( j, s)f (α T P (s))ds + η 2 K 2 ( j, s)g(α T P (s))ds.

4 Issue 5 volume 2, March.-April.215 The domain [, 1] discreized ino m equally spaced panels, or N + 1 grid poins, where he grid spacing is h = 1 N, rapezoidal rules gives K 1 ( j, s)f (α T P (s))ds = h N 2 (F(s ) + F(s N ) + 2 F(s k )), (9) where F(s) = K 1 ( j, s)f (α T P (s)), h = 1 N, for any ineger N, s i = ih, i =, 1,..., N and j K 2 ( j, s)g(α T P (s))ds = h N j 2 (G( s ) + G( s N ) + 2 G( s k )), (1) where G(s) = K 2 ( j, s)g(α T P (s)), h j = j N, for an arbirary ineger N, s i = ih. Now, we obain he following sysem: α T P ( j ) = g( j ) + η 1 h 2 ( F(s ) + F(s N ) + 2 N k=1 F(s k ) ) + η 2 h j 2 ( k=1 k=1 G( s ) + G( s N ) + 2 N k=1 G( s k ) (11) The sysem (11) is a (N + 1) linear or nonlinear algebraic equaions, which can be solved for α i, i =, 1,..., N. Therefore he unknown funcion Φ can be deermined. We recall ha he conjugae gradien mehod is an algorihm for he numerical soluion of paricular sysems of linear equaions, i s implemened as an ieraive algorihm used o solve a sparse sysems ha are oo large o be handled by a direc implemenaion or oher direc mehods such as he Cholesky decomposiion. Large sparse sysems can be obained when we solve a parial differenial equaions or opimizaion problems. In he oher hand, he nonlinear sysem will be solved using Newon s mehod. A special code wrien using MATLAB is implemened for solving nonlinear equaions using Newon s mehod. We noe ha Malab has is rouines for solving sysems of nonlinear equaions (one can look o fsolve in Malab) which is based on Newon s mehod. The linear and nonlinear sysem will be solved using he conjugae gradien mehod and Newon s mehod respecively. 4 Examples We confirm our heoreical discussion wih numerical examples in order o achieve he validiy, he accuracy. The compuaions, associaed wih he following examples, are performed by MATLAB 7. Example 1. Here, we will apply he echnique presened in previous secion o a linear inegral equaion, in order o show ha he mehod presened can be applied. We consider he equaion (1) wih g(x) = x 3 (6 2e)e x, η 1 = 1, η 2 = 1, The equaion (1) is as follows K 1 (x, y) = e (x+y), K 2 (x, y) =, F (Φ(y)) = Φ(y), G(Φ(y)) =. Φ(x) = x 3 (6 2e)e x + e (y+x) Φ(y)dy. (12) R S. Publicaion, rspublicaionhouse@gmail.com Page 566 )

(13) i= Using he same echnique presened in previous secion and using Equaion(8) we obain 4 i= α i P i (x j ) (x 3 j (6 2e)e x j ) h m 2 (F(y ) + F(y m ) + 2 F(y k )) =, j =, 1, 2, 3, 4, (14) where F(y) = e (y+x j) 4 i= α ip i (y) and he nodes y l+1 = y l + h, l =, 1,..., N, y = and h = 1 N. Equaion(14) represens linear sysem of 5 algebraic equaions in he coefficiens α i, i =,..., 4, which will be solved by he conjugae gradien mehod and we ge he following coefficiens: α =.48, α 1 =.5955, α 2 =.15, α 3 =.3998, α 4 =.1. Hence, he approximae soluion of Equaion(13) is as follows: Φ(x) =.48P (x) P 1 (x).15p 2 (x) P 3 (x).1p 4 (x). corresponding o exac soluion Φ(x) = x 3. k= Exac soluion Approximae soluion 12 x Error example Figure 1: Error beween exac soluion and he presen mehod wih N = 4 In example 1, we have considered only N = 4 erms in he expansion of he soluion using Legendre polynomials, he Figure 1 gives he behavior of rue (exac) and he approximae soluion and he behavior of he error beween hem, we noice ha he echnique used is much more perinen and can be considered as a profiable mehod o solve he linear inegral equaions.

Unlike, he firs example, here we will consider he case of a nonlinear inegral equaion wih: Consider he equaion (1) wih he following funcions and coefficiens Equaion(1) akes he following form g(x) = 2xe x e x + 1, η 1 = 1, η 2 =, K 1 (x, y) =, K 2 (x, y) = (x + y), F (Φ(y)) =, G(Φ(y)) = e Φ(y). Φ(x) = 2xe x e x + 1 (y + x)e Φ(y) dy. (15) The suggesed mehod will be considered wih N = 4, and he approximae soluion Φ(x) can be wrien in he following way Φ N (x) = The echnique presened can be applied and using Eq.(8) we obain 4 i= 4 α i P i (x) = α T P (x). (16) i= α i P i (x j ) f(x j ) + h m j 2 (F(y ) + F(y m ) + 2 F(y k )) =, j =, 1, 2, 3, 4, (17) where he nodes y l+1 = y l + h, l =, 1,..., m, y = and h j = j m, F(y) = (y + x j)e CT P (y). The Equaion (17) presens nonlinear sysem of N + 1 algebraic equaions in he coefficiens α i. By solving i by using he Newon ieraion mehod wih suiable iniial soluion we obain α =.2, α 1 =.9895, α 2 =.22, α 3 =.88, α 4 =.23. Hence, he approximae soluion obained from (16) wrien in he following way Φ(x) =.2P (x) P 1 (x) +.22P 2 (x).88p 3 (x) +.23P 4 (x). associaed o exac soluion Φ(x) = x.

From his Fig. 2 we noice ha he proposed mehod can be considered as an perinen mehod o solve he nonlinear inegral equaions. Example 3. Equaion (1) will be considered wih Equaion(1) can be wrien as follows: k=1 g(x) = xe + 1, η 1 =, η 2 = 1, K 1 (x, y) = y + x, K 2 (x, y) =, F (Φ(y)) = e Φ(y), G(Φ(y)) =.
