Introduction Second kind integral equations have recently attracted attention due to their wide applications in various areas of science and engineering; for example, many problems in plasma physics [6] or electrical engineering [7] result in solving some second kind integral equations. Usually the explicit solution of an integral equation system is difficult to derive. Hence it is necessary to seek efficient numerical solutions. There are many different basis functions such as the Adomian decomposition method [2, 21], Legendre collocation method [18], Tau method [9], method of Taylor’s expansion [10, 19], homotopy perturbation method [11], method of spline collocation [5, 13, 17], Runge–Kutta [15, 25], Sinccollocation method [8, 20], block-pulse functions [4, 12] and hat function [3] that have been used to get approximate solutions of integral equations. Recently, the idea of hybrid functions has been exploited to improve the convergence rate of the numerical solution of integral equations. For example, the combination of block-pulse .
