We develop a B-spline–Heaviside collocation method for Cauchy singular integral equations on a smooth closed C2 contour when the exact solution is piecewise Hölder continuous with ﬁnitely many prescribed jumps. Since the Cauchy singular integral of a discontinuous function generally has logarithmic terms at the jump points, we study  \nM = cI + dS + K : Xα → Yα , Xα = PH α (Γ , D), Yα = PHlαog , ∗ (Γ , D),  \nwhere Yα is a logarithmically enlarged piecewise Hölder space with lateral Hölder logarithmic coeﬃcients. The discontinuous component is represented by a nonredundant system of normalized relative Heaviside functions adapted to the closed contour. Collocation uses point evaluations at spline nodes separated from the jump set together with logarithmic-coeﬃcient functionals at the jumps.

Introduction  \nCauchy singular integral equations on closed contours form a traditional class of equations in complex analysis, boundary integral methods, and mathematical physics. They arise in boundary formulations of elliptic problems, in interface and transmission models, in crack problems, in plane elasticity, in potential theory, and in many models where a boundary condition changes from one part of the contour to another. For equations with smooth coeﬃcients and smooth right-hand sides, polynomial, trigonometric, spline, Nyström, and Galerkin discretizations are well understood and can provide stable and high-order approximations; see, for example, the classical and numerical references [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] .  \nThe numerical situation changes substantially when the coeﬃcients, the data, or the solution are only piecewise regular. In many applications the boundary is divided into ﬁnitely many arcs, and the physical model prescribes diﬀerent coeﬃcients or diﬀerent boundary conditions on diﬀerent arcs. The resulting unknown may be Hölder continuous on each arc but may have ﬁnite jumps at the interface points. Spline collocation and Galerkin methods for singular integral equations with piecewise continuous coeﬃcients have been studied in related settings in [6, 7] . Smooth global approximation spaces are not structurally adapted to such functions. If a discontinuity is approximated indirectly by polynomials, trigonometric polynomials, or globally continuous splines, spurious oscillations and a loss of strong convergence near the jump points are typical. A natural remedy is to build the discontinuity structure into the trial space itself.  \n2020 Mathematics Subject Classiﬁcation.
