Abstract: Cauchy singular integral equations with index zero and with singular given functions are investigated. In order to improve the smoothness properties of the known functions, following [29] (see also [31]), a regularizing procedure is introduced and a Cauchy singular integral equation with fixed singularities of Mellin convolution type is obtained. Thus a quadrature method is proposed whose stability and convergence is shown by means of numerical tests.
