Abstract
In this paper, a Legendre spectral method for solving the second Fredholm integral equation is presented. Firstly, the integral transformation is performed, and then the Legendre-Gauss quadrative formula combined with series expansion method are used to approximate the integral term and the unknown function, and then the approximate solution of the transformed integral equation is obtained, and the error analysis is carried out. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the method are verified by numerical examples.
