A note on integral equations

Abstract

In a recent paper Cooke [1] obtained a solution of the integral equationby using the identityand the technique, first used by Copson, of interchanging the orders of integration and hence reducing the problem to that of the successive solution of two Abel integral equations. It is also shown in [1] that the above identity can also be used to solve the dual series equationsThe kernel in equation (1) is a particular member of a general class of kernels which the author [6] has shown to be such that the resulting integral equation is directly soluble by using Copson's technique. The particular example of equation (1) is given in [6] and the identity of equation (2) was used by the author [7] to obtain the solution of equation (3).
