Let C[0,1]C[0,1] be the set of continuous real-valued functions on [0,1][0,1] with the uniform norm. Suppose T:C[0,1]C[0,1]T: C[0,1] \rightarrow C[0,1] is defined by

T(f)(x)=0xf(t3)dtT(f)(x)=\int_{0}^{x} f\left(t^{3}\right) d t

for all x[0,1]x \in[0,1] and fC[0,1]f \in C[0,1]. Is TT a contraction mapping? Does TT have a unique fixed point? Justify your answers.
