For many choices of u and v, there is just one x < 0 and one x > 0 satisfying u*x + v = exp(x). Guide to related sequences, with graphs included in Mathematica programs:
u.... v.... least x.....greatest x
Suppose that f(x,u,v) is a function of three real variables and that g(u,v) is a function defined implicitly by f(g(u,v),u,v)=0. We call the graph of z = g(u,v) an implicit surface of f.
For an example related to A202320, take f(x,u,v) = u*x + v - exp(x) and g(u,v) = a nonzero solution x of f(x,u,v) = 0. If there is more than one nonzero solution, care must be taken to ensure that the resulting function g(u,v) is single-valued and continuous. A portion of an implicit surface is plotted by Program 2 in the Mathematica section.
The solution for u*x + v = exp(x) is -LambertW(-1/(u*exp(v/u))) - v/u. - Andrea Pinos, Sep 14 2023
