Abstract

Let (1)Rh=f(1) Rh=f, 0xL0\leq x\leq L, Rh=0LR(x,y)h(y)dyRh=\int^L_0 R(x,y)h(y) dy, where the kernel R(x,y)R(x,y) satisfies the equation QR=Pδ(xy)QR=P\delta(x-y). Here QQ and PP are formal differential operators of order nn and m<nm<n, respectively, nn and mm are nonnegative even integers, n>0n>0, m0m\geq 0, Qu:=qn(x)u(n)+j=0n1qj(x)u(j)Qu:=q_n(x)u^{(n)} + \sum^{n-1}_{j=0} q_j(x) u^{(j)}, Ph:=h(m)+j=0m1pj(x)h(j)Ph:=h^{(m)} +\sum^{m-1}_{j=0} p_j(x) h^{(j)}, qn(x)c>0q_n(x)\geq c>0, the coefficients qj(x)q_j(x) and pj(x)p_j(x) are smooth functions defined on R\R, δ(x)\delta(x) is the delta-function, fHα(0,L)f\in H^\alpha(0,L), given. Here H˙α(0,L)\dot H^{-\alpha}(0,L) is the dual space to Hα(0,L)H^\alpha(0,L) with respect to the inner product of L2(0,L)L^2(0,L). Under suitable assumptions it is proved that R:H˙α(0,L)Hα(0,L)R:\dot H^{-\alpha}(0,L) \to H^\alpha(0,L) is an isomorphism. Equation (1) is the basic equation of random processes estimation theory. Some of the results are generalized to the case of multidimensional equation (1), in which case this is the basic equation of random fields estimation theory. α:=nm2\alpha:=\frac{n-m}{2}, HαH^\alpha is the Sobolev space. An algorithm for finding analytically the unique solution hH˙α(0,L)h\in\dot H^{-\alpha} (0,L) to (1) of minimal order of singularity is
