Singularly perturbed Volterra integral equations with weakly singular kernels

We consider finding asymptotic solutions of the singularly perturbed linear Volterra integral equations with weakly singular kernels. An interesting aspect of these problems is that the discontinuity of the kernel causes layer solutions to decay algebraically rather than exponentially within the ini...
