Homogeneous/Kind?[edit]

The use of the terms homogeneous and inhomogeneous in this article appear to refer to equations of the first and second kind respectively as described in the article Fredholm integral equation whereas whether or not the equation is homogeneous should refer to whether the functions labelled f(x) and g(x) in this article are exactly zero.

I have not edited the page as I have no experience in this field but believe I have identified a contradiction.

There appears to be an error in the first section. I do not believe that the eigenfunction expansion of the kernel is correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.254.163.129 (talk) 20:42, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A word or two more of explanation in the first paragraph would help. When it says that Fredholm theory is concerned with solving a certain equation, it would be helpful to say which terms in the equation are known and which is to be found. The rest of the paragraph may or may not explain that, but would be easier to understand if it said what KL has to do with L. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.22.124.77 (talk) 21:48, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

InhomogenOUS?[edit]

In Fredholm integral equation (and the rest of the internet), it's spelled inhomogenEOUS. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.2.2.13 (talk) 04:13, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
