I'm trying to find the fix point of the operator $T(f) = \int_0^x f(y) (1/2 + y/2)/ dy$.
My approach is to put $Tf = f(x)$ and taking the derivative $d/dx$ of each side, which give me
$$ f(x)(1/2 + x/2) = df/dx$$
which is a separable ODE, with the solution $ f(x) = C \exp(x^2/4+x/2)$, but when I'm checking $Tf = f$ (plugging in my f(x) in the integral) I instead get $$ Tf = f-1$$
due to the lower limit $x=0$
Since $Tf = f$ as functions, in particular, $Tf(0) = f(0)$. On one hand, $Tf(0) = \int_0^0 \cdots \,\mathrm{d}y = 0$. On the other hand, $f(0) = C \exp(0) = C$, so $C = 0$, thus $f \equiv 0$. This should gives the correct fixed point.
