Abstract

In this paper, we study an iterative numerical method for approximating solutions of a certain type of Volterra functional integral equations of the second kind (Volterra integral equations where both limits of integration are variables). The method uses the contraction principle and a suitable quadrature formula. Under certain conditions, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution and give error estimates for our approximations. We also included a numerical example which illustrates the fast approximations.
