The Fourier transform, wrt to angular frequency, needs of a factor (1/2π) for get f(t) or F(ω), actually, this factor is broken in 2 factors (1/√2pi) and each kernel, direct and inverse, receives one factor for keep the symmetry in equation.
F(\omega)=\int_{-\infty }^{+\infty }\frac{e^{-i\omega t}}{\sqrt{2\pi}} f(t)dt
f(t)=\int_{-\infty }^{+\infty }\frac{e^{+i\omega t}}{\sqrt{2\pi}} F(\omega)d\omega

Why others transform, by definition, don't have its "conversion factor" "broken" in 2 and distributed in each kernel? Is wrong define the transforms in this way? Prejudice the calculus?

You can break the any transformation any way you like - it's just not always useful to do so.
 
Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
