in final form June 2007) This article deals with the solvability, the explicit solutions of a class of singular integral equations with a linear-fractional Carleman shift and the degenerate kernel on the unit circle by means of the Riemann boundary value problem and of a system of linear algebraic equations All cases about index of the coefficients in the equations are considered in detail Keywords: Integral operators; Singular Integral equations; Riemann boundary value problems AMS Subject Classifications: 47G05; 45G05; 45E05 Introduction Singular integral equations with a shift (SIES) have been studied for a long time (see [1,2] and references therein) Many papers devoted to singular integral operators with a shift (SIOS) are given to the construction of the Fredholm theory Once M G Krein called the Fredholm theory of linear operators a rough theory, and the theory describing its defect subspaces a delicate theory [3] However, the Fredholm theory of these operators brings about only one thing, the defect of dimensions of kernel of the operator and its dual operator In other words, it is only the defect of the numbers of linear independent solutions of the homogeneous equations reduced by the operator and the corresponding dual operator So the question of solving (and even of estimating the numbers of solutions) of the corresponding equations actually remains open [4] There are only a few special types of SIES for which it is possible to answer this question to some extent [2,5] Among the SIES of this type not reducible to two-term boundary value problems, the most general and important is the class of singular integral equations with a *Corresponding author Email: nguyentuan@vnu.edu.vn Complex Variables and Elliptic Equations ISSN 1747-6933 print/ISSN 1747-6941 online ß 2008 Taylor & Francis http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals DOI: 10.1080/17476930701619782 Downloaded By: [Tuan, Nguyen Minh] At: 18:21 23 January 2008 118 L H Chuan et al linear-fractional Carleman shift In our view, the singular integral equations with a linear-fractional Carleman shift in the unit circle, in addition, deserve the interest Factorization is the main method used by some authors to investigate Fredholm and solvability theory for SIES (see [3,4] and references therein) In [6], two of us gave a general formula of linear-fractional Carleman shifts on the unit circle and solved by means of Riemann boundary value problem for a class of singular integral equations with a linear-fractional Carleman shift on the unit circle In this article, we study the solvability for a class of singular integral equations with a linear-fractional Carleman shift and with the degenerate kernels on the unit circle In genaral, one knows that the singular integral operator of Cauchy’s type (denoted by S) not commute with Carleman shift opetaor (denoted by W), but the difference beetwen them WS À SW is a compact operator [2]) In section 2, we obtain some identities relating to those operators The scheme of our investigation is divided into two parts: first, we move the degenerate kernels to the right-side hand of the equation Based on the identity W n ¼ I, we construct the orthogonal projectors and reduce the equation to a system of singular integral equations without shift and solve this system by means of Riemann boundary value problem Second, we reconstruct the solution of the orginal equation from the solutions of system of equations that can be solved, but its solution depends on some unknown parameters As indicated below, the equations of the type (1.1) can be solved by means of Riemann boundary value problem and by of a system of linear algebraic equations Let À ¼ {t C, jtj ¼ 1} be the unit circle on the complex plane C and let X :ẳ H(), 0551 Let ! tị ẳ t þ , t þ ð À ¼ 1;
