AbstractThis paper is concerned with stability of deficiency indices for discrete Hamiltonian systems under perturbations. By applying the perturbation theory of Hermitian linear relations we establish the invariance of deficiency indices for discrete Hamiltonian systems under bounded perturbations. As a consequence, we obtain the invariance of limit types for the systems under bounded perturbations. In particular, we build several criteria of the invariance of the limit circle and limit point cases for the systems. Some of these results improve and extend some previous results.
