We investigate the periodic nature of solutions of the max difference equationxn+1=max⁡{xn,A}/(xnxn−1),n=0,1,…, whereAis a positive real parameter, and the initial conditionsx−1=Ar−1andx0=Ar0such thatr−1andr0are positive rational numbers. The results in this paper answer the Open Problem 6.2 posed by Grove and Ladas (2005).

AbstractWe consider the second-order rational difference equation $$ {x_{n+1}=\gamma +\delta \frac{x_{n}}{x^{2}_{n-1}}}, $$xn+1=γ+δxnxn−12, where γ, δ are positive real numbers and the initial conditions $x_{-1}$x−1 and $x_{0}$x0 are positive real numbers. Boundedness along with global attractivity and Neimark–Sacker bifurcation results are established. Furthermore, we give an asymptotic approximation of the invariant curve near the equilibrium point.

We investigate the global asymptotic stability of the following second order rational difference equation of the form xn+1=Bxnxn-1+F/bxnxn-1+cxn-12,  n=0,1,…, where the parameters B, F, b, and c and initial conditions x-1 and x0 are positive real numbers. The map associated with this equation is always decreasing in the second variable and can be either increasing or decreasing in the first variable depending on the parametric space. In some cases, we prove that local asymptotic stability of the unique equilibrium point implies global asymptotic stability. Also, we show that considered equation exhibits the Naimark-Sacker bifurcation resulting in the existence of the locally stable periodic solution of unknown period.

AbstractIn this paper, we determine the forbidden set, introduce an explicit formula for the solutions and discuss the global behavior of solutions of the difference equationx_{n+1}=\frac{ax_{n}x_{n-k}}{bx_{n}-cx_{n-k-1}},\quad n=0,1,\ldots,where{a,b,c}are positive real numbers and the initial conditions{x_{-k-1},x_{-k},\ldots,x_{-1},x_{0}}are real numbers. We show that when{a=b=c}, the behavior of the solutions depends on whetherkis even or odd.

This is a continuation part of our investigation in which the second order nonlinear rational difference equation xn+1=(α+βxn+γxn-1)/(A+Bxn+Cxn-1), n=0,1,2,…, where the parameters A≥0 and B, C, α, β, γ are positive real numbers and the initial conditions x-1, x0 are nonnegative real numbers such that A+Bx0+Cx-1>0, is considered. The first part handled the global asymptotic stability of the hyperbolic equilibrium solution of the equation. Our concentration in this part is on the global asymptotic stability of the nonhyperbolic equilibrium solution of the equation.

Our goal in this paper is to investigate the global asymptotic stability of the hyperbolic equilibrium solution of the second order rational difference equation xn+1=α+βxn+γxn-1/A+Bxn+Cxn-1, n=0,1,2,…, where the parameters A≥0 and B, C, α, β, γ are positive real numbers and the initial conditions x-1, x0 are nonnegative real numbers such that A+Bx0+Cx-1>0. In particular, we solve Conjecture 5.201.1 proposed by Camouzis and Ladas in their book (2008) which appeared previously in Conjecture 11.4.2 in Kulenović and Ladas monograph (2002).
