About Some Boundary Integral Operators on the Unit Disk Related to the Laplace Equation.

We introduce four integral operators related to the Laplace equation in three dimensions on the circular unit disk. Two of them are related to the weakly singular operator and the other two are related to the hypersingular operator. We provide series expressions for their kernels using proposed bases for the Sobolev trace spaces involved in the symmetric Dirichlet and antisymmetric Neumann Laplace screen problems on the disk. We then provide explicit and closed variational forms suitable for boundary element computations. We develop numerical computation schemes for the associated Galerkin matrices and test their use as preconditioners for the matrices arising from the integral equations associated with the solution of the mentioned screen problems.
