Is there an analytical (maybe involving special functions) solution of an equation of the form:
$$\ln(1-x)-\ln(x)+\frac{a}{x}=c$$
Here I want to solve for $x$, which should satisfy $0\le x\le1$, and $a,c$ are real constants.

The solution can be written using the Lambert W function as
$$ x = \frac{a}{W(a e^{c-a})+a} $$
If $-e^{-1} < a e^{c-a} < 0$ there will be two real solutions, one using the principal branch and one using the "$-1$" branch of W.
