ABSTRACT
A fully discrete version of a piecewise polynomial collocation method based on new collocation points, is constructed
to solve nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm integral equations. In this paper, we obtain existence and uniqueness results and
analyze the convergence properties of the collocation method when used to approximate smooth solutions of VolterraFredholm integral equations.

3. Collocation Method
Let tn nh, n 0, , N 1, t N T define a uniform
partition for I 0,T , and let

The mesh N is constrained in the following sense:

It is clear that, matrix has a uniformly bounded inverse and the elements of the matrixes are all bounded.
Note that, from these assumptions and 1 Q 1 ,
there exists a constant D0 so that for all mesh diCopyright 2012 SciRes.

where zi s : i y s 1 i u s , 0 i s 1.
Hence, the above proof is easily adapted to deal with
the nonlinear case (1), and so the convergence results of
Theorem 1 remain valid for nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm
integral equations.

6. Conclusion
We have shown that the collocation method yields an
efficient and very accurate numerical method for the approximation of solutions to Volterra-Fredholm integral
equations. Also we have shown that, if the roots of
Pm 0 t are chosen as collocation points, then we can
obtain an accurate numerical quadrature.
