Existence of unique-up-to-shift solution of a Volterra equation

Let $\Delta=\{(t,s):\ 0<s\leq t\leq1\}$, and suppose $k:\Delta\to\mathbb R$ and $f:(0,1]\to\mathbb R$ are continuous. Further assume that for every $t\in(0,1]$, the function $k(t,\cdot):(0,t]\to\...

Uniqueness for Volterra equation with initially (linearly) unbounded kernel

Letting $D:=\{(x,y):\ 0\leq x\leq y\leq1 \text{ and } y>0\}$, I have a continuous function $k:D\to[0,\infty)$ that satisfies some properties that I list below. I'm interested in continuous and ...

Uniqueness of the solution to systems of first-order linear PDEs

Context: Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^p$ be an domain. For functions $A_{jk}^i : \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ and $B_k^i : \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ with some regularity, I am interested in the following ...

Uniqueness of a second order linear ode

I am currently confronted with the following equation $$ 0=w''(t)(t^2-t)+w'(t)((2n-1)t^2-n)+w(t)(n-1)^2t $$ for $t\in(-1,1)$. So $w:(-1,1)\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$. The following assumption is also in ...

Uniqueness of minimizers in the Calculus of Variations

Let $f \colon \mathbb R^2 \to \mathbb R$ be the function defined by $$ f(x,y):= (x^+)^2 + (y^+)^2 $$ where $a^+ = \max\{a,0\}$ for any real number $a$. Given a Lipschitz regular domain $\Omega \...
