Schauder solution of a small Hammerstein integral equation
ID: schauder-solution-of-a-small-hammerstein-integral-equation
For continuous and , restrict to the closed supremum-norm ball of radius in . Boundedness on the compact kernel and nonlinearity boxes makes the integral map preserve this ball for sufficiently small positive . Uniform continuity of proves continuity of the map; uniform continuity of gives an equicontinuous bounded image. Arzelà-Ascoli makes that image relatively compact, and Schauder gives a solution. No global Lipschitz hypothesis or uniqueness conclusion is needed.
