Abstract
Integral equations occur in many physical applications. We encounter some of the most important ones when we try to solve elliptic differential equations. These can be transformed into integral equations and can then be solved numerically by means of the boundary element method. The subject of this chapter is the formulation and analysis of scalar, elliptic boundary value problems.
