Uniqueness quantification : ウィキペディア英語版
Uniqueness quantification

In mathematics and logic, the phrase "there is one and only one" is used to indicate that exactly one object with a certain property exists. In mathematical logic, this sort of quantification is known as uniqueness quantification or unique existential quantification.
Uniqueness quantification is often denoted with the symbols "∃!" or ∃=1". For example, the formal statement
: \exists! n \in \mathbb\,(n - 2 = 4)
may be read aloud as "there is exactly one natural number ''n'' such that ''n'' - 2 = 4".
== Proving uniqueness ==
The most common technique to proving uniqueness is to first prove existence of entity with the desired condition; then, to assume there exist two entities (say, a and b) that should both satisfy the condition, and logically deduce their equality, i.e. ''a'' = ''b''.
As a simple high school example, to show ''x'' + 2 = 5 has only one solution, we assume there are two solutions first, namely, ''a'' and ''b'', satisfying ''x'' + 2 = 5. Thus
: a + 2 = 5\textb + 2 = 5. \,
By transitivity of equality,
: a + 2 = b + 2. \,
By cancellation,
: a = b. \,
This simple example shows how a proof of uniqueness is done, the end result being the equality of the two quantities that satisfy the condition. However, that existence/expressibility must be proven before uniqueness, or else we cannot even assume the existence of those two quantities to begin with our current knowledge to date.
