In this paper, we discuss the Legendre spectral projection method for solving
Fredholm integral equations of the first kind using Tikhonov regularization. First, we discuss the convergence analysis under an a priori parameter strategy for the Tikhonov regularization using Legendre polynomial basis functions, and we obtain the optimal convergence rates in the uniform norm. Next, we discuss Arcangeli’s discrepancy principle to find a suitable regularization parameter and obtain the optimal order of convergence in uniform norm. We present numerical examples to illustrate the theoretical results.
