Abstract

In this paper, we present a new computational method to solve Volterra integral equations of the first kind based on Bernstein polynomials. In this method, using operational matrices turn the integral equation into a system of equations. The computed operational matrices are exact and new. The comparisons show this method is acceptable. Moreover, the stability of the proposed method is studied.
