We discuss the conductivity of two-dimensional media with coated neutral inclusions of finite conductivity. Such an inclusion, when inserted in a matrix, does not disturb the uniform external field. We are looking for shapes of the core and coating in terms of the conformal mapping ω ( z ) of the unit disc onto coated inclusions. The considered inverse problem is reduced to an eigenvalue problem for an integral equation containing singular integrals over a closed curve L 1 on the transformed complex plane. The conformal mapping ω ( z ) is constructed via eigenfunctions of the integral equation. For each fixed curve L 1 , the boundary of the core is given by the curve ω ( L 1 ). The boundary of the coating is obtained by the mapping of the unit circle. It is justified that any shaped inclusion with a smooth boundary can be made neutral by surrounding it with an appropriate coating. Shapes of the neutral inclusions are obtained in analytical form when L 1 is an ellipse.

In this article, we study the classical solution of the mixed problem in a quarter of a plane and a half-plane for a one-dimensional wave equation. On the bottom of the boundary, Cauchy conditions are specified, and the second of them has a discontinuity of the first kind at one point. Smooth boundary condition is set at the side boundary. The solution is built using the method of characteristics in an explicit analytical form. Uniqueness is proved and conditions are established under which a piecewise-smooth solution exists. The problem with linking conditions is considered.

In solving numerous problems in mathematics, mechanics, physics, and technology one is faced with necessity of calculating different singular integrals. In analytical form calculation of singular integrals is possible only in unusual cases. Therefore approximate methods of singular integrals calculation are an active developing direction of computing in mathematics. This review is devoted to the optimal with respect to accuracy algorithms of the calculation of singular integrals with fixed singularity, Cauchy and Hilbert kernels, polysingular and many-dimensional singular integrals. The isolated section is devoted to the optimal with respect to accuracy algorithms of the calculation of the hypersingular integrals.

Abstract Integral equation–based numerical methods are directly applicable to homogeneous elliptic PDEs and offer the ability to solve these with high accuracy and speed on complex domains. In this paper, such a method is extended to the heat equation with inhomogeneous source terms. First, the heat equation is discretised in time, then in each time step we solve a sequence of so-called modified Helmholtz equations with a parameter depending on the time step size. The modified Helmholtz equation is then split into two: a homogeneous part solved with a boundary integral method and a particular part, where the solution is obtained by evaluating a volume potential over the inhomogeneous source term over a simple domain. In this work, we introduce two components which are critical for the success of this approach: a method to efficiently compute a high-regularity extension of a function outside the domain where it is defined, and a special quadrature method to accurately evaluate singular and nearly singular integrals in the integral formulation of the modified Helmholtz equation for all time step sizes.

Quadrature linear integro-differential equations on a closed curve located in the complex plane are solved. The equations contain singular integrals which are understood in the sense of the main value and hypersingular integrals which are understood in the sense of the Hadamard finite part. The coefficients of the equations have a special structure.
