Reduction of the $0$-handle data in Lurie's classification of TFT

A vital part of Jacob Lurie's classification of fully extended topological field theories [1], very roughly, says that any representation of the n-Cobordism category $Z: {\rm Cob}_{{n}} \to C$ depends ...

Non-uniqueness of solutions to a simple nonlinear elliptic PDE in $\mathbb R^n$

My question is about non-uniqueness of solutions of an elliptic PDE in $\mathbb R^n$ with source term in a scaling-subcritical space (regular, but with too slow decay at infinity), and with some nice ...

Ricci flow on locally symmetric noncompact manifold

As it is mentioned by Deane Yang in Ricci flow preserves locally symmetry along the flow, we know the local symmetry is preserved under the Ricci flow on the compact manifold since we have the ...

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 results for linear first order systems of PDEs

Context: I have the following system of PDEs, for an unknown function $u:\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\to \mathbb{C}^m$ (it is a system in the components of $u$): $$u_{x_0}=\sum_{i=1}^n A_iu_{x_i} + B(x)u\qquad u(...

Proving the uniqueness of the solution to a functional equation involving integral

Consider the functional equation $$ g\left(a\right) = \int_0^1 \frac{e^{c(a,h)+f(h)}}{1+e^{c(a,h)+f(h)}}dh $$ and this holds for all $a$. $g(a)$ and $c(a,h)$ are known functions on a continuous ...

Implicit function theorem when $dF/dy = 0$ but under monotonicity constraint of the implicit function $y(x)$

I am looking for an extended version of the implicit/inverse function theorem that would show uniqueness of a strictly increasing implicit function, even when the derivative condition is violated (e.g....
