Product integration methods for solving a system of nonlinear Volterra integral equations

In this paper the technique of subtracting out singularities is used to derive explicit and implicit product Euler schemes with order one convergence and a product trapezoidal scheme with order two convergence for a system of Volterra integral equations with a weakly singular kernel. The convergence proofs of the numerical schemes are presented; these are nonstandard since the nonlinear function involved in the integral equation system does not satisfy a global Lipschitz condition.
