Abstract: In this paper we establish uniqueness criteria for positive radially symmetric finite energy solutions of semilinear elliptic systems of the form �egin{align*} �egin{aligned} - Delta u &= f(|x|,u,v)quad ext{in}R^n, - Delta v &= f(|x|,v,u)quad ext{in}R^n. end{aligned} end{align*} As an application we consider the following nonlinear Schr"odinger system �egin{align*} �egin{aligned} - Delta u + u &= u^{2q-1} + b u^{q-1}v^qquad ext{in}R^n, - Delta v + v &= v^{2q-1} + b v^{q-1}u^q quad ext{in}R^n. end{aligned} end{align*} for $b>0$ and exponents $q$ which satisfy $1<q<infty$ in case $nin1,2$ and $1<q<fracnn-2$ in case $ngeq3$. Generalizing the results of Wei and Yao dealing with the case $q=2$ we find new sufficient conditions and necessary conditions on $b,q,n$ such that precisely one positive solution exists. Our results dealing with the special case $n=1$ are optimal.
