Decay rate for a small perturbation of a simple linear ODE

MOTIVATION. Let $f:[0,+\infty)\to \mathbb{R}$. Solutions to $\partial_tf(t) = -\lambda f(t)$, $f(0)\neq 0$ approach zero exactly as $e^{-\lambda t}$. This property is preserved if we apply an ...

How to solve the integral equation $f(x)=\frac{\lambda\int_{x}^1 \sqrt{1+(f(t))^2}dt+c_1}{\int_{x}^1 \sqrt{1+(f(t))^2}dt+c_2}$?

Recently, I have asked a question about variational analysis (First moments of uniform distribution on a curve from (0,0) to (1,1) in two-space). Such the question can be addressed in some cases by ...
