Let \(\gamma\) be a simple open smooth curve and \(\alpha\) be an orientation-preserving diffeomorphism of \(\gamma\) onto itself which has only two fixed points. Criteria for one-sided invertibility of the functional operator
\[
A=aI-bW,
\]
where \(a\) and \(b\) are continuous functions, \(I\) is the identity operator, \(W\) is the shift operator: \((Wf)(t)=f[\alpha(t)]\), in a reflexive rearrangement-invariant space of fundamental type \(X(\gamma)\) with nontrivial Boyd indices, are obtained.
