ABSTRACT In this paper, a double-exponential (DE) Sinc Nyström method is utilized to solve nonlinear two-dimensional Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Using the DE transformation, the Sinc quadrature rule for a definite integral is extended to double integral over a rectangular region. Therefore, a nonlinear Fredholm integral equation is reduced to a system of nonlinear algebraic equations, which is solved using the Newton iteration method. Convergence analysis shows that the proposed method can converge exponentially. Several numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the high efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.
