Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the numerical solution of a class of linear integral equations of the second kind over an infinite interval. The method of solution is based on the reduction of the problem to a finite interval by means of a suitable family of mappings so that the resulting singular equation can be accurately solved using spectral collocation at the Jacobi-Gauss points. Several selected numerical examples are presented and discussed to illustrate the application and effectiveness of the proposed approach.
