Uniqueness of the Fredholm-Stiltjes Linear Integral Equations Solutions of the Third Kind ()
1. Introduction
The theoretical part and applications of integral equations have been studied and investigated in many different works. In particular, in [1], a survey of the results of investigations of Volterra integral equations of the second kind was considered. In [2], Volterra integral equations of the first and third kind with smooth kernels are studied, where a proof of the existence of a multiparameter family of solutions is given. In [3], linear Fredholm integral equations of the first kind were investigated, for which Lavrent’ev regularizing operators were constructed. In [4], a theory is presented and numerical methods are used for solving nonclassical Volterra integral equations of the first kind with differentiable and nonzero kernels on the diagonal. In papers [4] [5] [6] [7] applications of non-classical Volterra integral equations of the first kind in various applied problems are given. In [8], the Lavrent’ev regularization method is used for Volterra integral equations of the first kind with smooth and nonzero kernels on the diagonal and differentiable solutions, for which an approximate solution is constructed. In works [9] [10], sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of solutions were obtained and the problems of regularization of solutions to systems of linear and nonlinear Volterra integral equations of the first and third kind were investigated. In [11], a unique theorem for solutions is proved and a regularizing operator is found for solving a system of Volterra linear integral equations of the third kind. In works [12] [13], a new approach was used to study the existence and uniqueness of solutions of scalar Fredholm integral equations of the third kind with multipoint singularities and their systems. In [14], results are given on the Volterra integral equations of the first kind. In [15], derivative concept with respect to an increasing function was introduced, using linear Fredholm-Stiltjes integral equations of the first kind in [16] [17] [18]. Numerical solution of the Fredholm and Volterra Integral equations by using modified Bernstein-Kantorovich operators [19], second kind [20], and third kind of nonlinear Volterra-Stieltjes integral equations with the solution by Lavrentyev regularizing operator were also described [21].
In this paper, based on concept of derivatives with respect to an increasing function, using the method of nonnegative quadratic forms, we establish sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of a solution for Fredholm-Stiltjes integral equations of the third kind (1).

In summary, results of the Fredholm-Stiltjes linear integral equations solutions uniqueness of the third kind were described. The Volterra integral equations of the first and third kind with smooth kernels were studied, and proof of the existence of solutions is shown. The work was devoted to the study of uniqueness questions for linear Fredholm-Stiltjes integral equations of third kind. Sufficient conditions for uniqueness of solutions for the integral equations under study were established. In the future, it is planned to study the problems of constructing regularizing operators for Fredholm-Stiltjes integral third kind equations.
