Computational implementation of integral equations

Integral equations are solved numerically. One has the Ornstein-Zernike relation, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \gamma (12)} and a closure relation, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c_2 (12)} (which incorporates the bridge function Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle B(12)} ). The numerical solution is iterative;

3. use the Ornstein-Zernike relation to generate a new Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \gamma (12)} etc.

Note that the value of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c_2 (12)} is local, i.e. the value of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c_2 (12)} at a given point is given by the value of $\gamma (12)$ at this point. However, the Ornstein-Zernike relation is non-local. The way to convert the Ornstein-Zernike relation into a local equation is to perform a (fast) Fourier transform (FFT). Note: convergence is poor for liquid densities. (See Ref.s 1 to 6).

Picard iteration

Picard iteration generates a solution of an initial value problem for an ordinary differential equation (ODE) using fixed-point iteration. Here are the four steps used to solve integral equations:
