摘要
We prove existence and uniqueness for the inverse-first-passage time problem for soft-killed Brownian motion using rather elementary methods relying on basic results from probability theory only. We completely avoid the relation to a suitable partial differential equation via a suitable Feynman-Kac representation, which was previously one of the main tools.
