Location of Solutions of Fredholm–Nemytskii Integral Equations from a Whittaker-Type Operator

Abstract

We analyse the global convergence of a Whittaker-type iterative method and obtain restricted global convergence domains, so that we can locate and separate solutions of Fredholm–Nemytskii nonlinear integral equations by means of balls. For this, we use two techniques, one based on the well-known fixed point theorem and the other on a system of recurrence relations. In both techniques, we use the Whittaker-type operator involved and auxiliary functions.
