Babak Shiri, Sedaghat Shahmorad, Gholamreza Hojjati

Abstract
In this paper, we deal with a system of integral algebraic equations of the Hessenberg type. Using a new index definition, the existence and uniqueness of a solution to this system are studied. The well-known piecewise continuous collocation methods are used to solve this system numerically, and the convergence properties of the perturbed piecewise continuous collocation methods are investigated to obtain the order of convergence for the given numerical methods. Finally, some numerical experiments are provided to support the theoretical results.

Keywords
piecewise continuous collocations methods, Volterra integral equations, integral algebraic equations
