Metric Differential Geometry
The existence and uniqueness theorem is a fundamental concept in differential equations that states under certain conditions, a solution to an initial value problem exists and is unique. This theorem guarantees that given a differential equation with specified initial conditions, there is exactly one solution that satisfies both the equation and the initial conditions, which is crucial when discussing properties like geodesics and connections.
