For any given property $P(x)$ defined for $x\in X$, we can ask "does there exist an $x\in X$ such that $P(x)$?", and "if so, is this $x$ the unique element of $X$ that satisfies this".
This is called "existence and uniqueness".
However, assume now that the $x$ has already been identified as a candidate for having property $x$, and that we have to prove that $P(x)$ holds, and is unique.
What shorthand term would we use for "this particular $x$ has the property $P(x)$"?
Basically, I am looking for an equivalent version of the statement "prove existence and uniqueness" in the case where the candidate $x$ is already known: "prove ..... and uniqueness".
The reason I'm asking, is in order to shorten the phrase "prove that $x$ satisfies the property $P(x)$ and uniquely so".
EDIT: what I want to do is be able to write a proof like this:
First we prove [existence] (substitute existence for the term im looking for).
.....
Now we prove uniqueness.
....
Let object $x$ and property $P(\check{x})$ be given, where $\check{x}$ is a free variable.
