Given the equation
$$int^{1}_{-1}K(|x-t|)varphi(t)dt=0,$$
where the kernel is positive: $K(x)>0$; equation is satisfied for $xin [-1,1]$. $K(x)$ and $varphi(x)$ are real and continuous functions. I'm looking for nontrivial solutions $varphi(x)$.
Unfortunately, the explicit form of kernel $K(x)$ is unknown, but approximately K(x) is close to $exp(-lambda x)$.
I suppose, that if kernel $K(x)$ is not constant, then only trivial solutions exist. (If kernel is constant, then any odd function satisfies the equation.) Is this so? And how to prove it?
