Each discrete term satisfies
and the same identity follows for the Fourier integral from . Hence
Apply to the Gelfand-Levitan-Marchenko equation. Differentiating under the integral and integrating the derivatives by parts, the boundary terms combine to . The terms containing cancel, leaving
Uniqueness of the Marchenko equation then also gives .
