A Bernstein polynomial approach for solution of nonlinear integral equations

Abstract

In this study, a collocation method based on the generalized Bernstein polynomials is derivated for solving nonlinear Fredholm-Volterra integral equations (FVIEs) in the most general form via the quasilinearization technique. Moreover, quadratic convergence and error estimate of the proposed method is analyzed. Some examples are also presented to show the accuracy and applicability of the method.
