Differential Equation for CDF

374 Views Asked by At

Consider the following differential equation

$$F(cx) = F(x) + x F'(x)$$

for $c>1$.

  1. Does this differential equation belong to a some well known class?

  2. Is there a way to find all the solutions $F(\cdot)$ of this equation that are also cumulative distribution functions?

  3. $F(x) = x^a$ for a properly chosen $a$ is a solution. Is it unique in the class of cumulative distribution functions?
