ABSTRACT. This paper considers the discretization approach in the approximate solution of the Hammerstein equation of the form x(s) = K(s,t)f(t,x(t)) (dt) + y(s), s D R, where the kernel K and the superposition operator f are supposed to be so discontinuous that we are forced to look for a solution x in the space L (D) of essentially bounded functions. For a special partition of the integration domain D the discrete convergence of elements is defined in L (D) and the Hammerstein equation approximated by a sequence of finite dimensional equations.
