We mainly investigate the global behavior to the family of higher-order nonautonomous recursive equations given byyn=(p+ryn-s)/(q+ϕn(yn-1,yn-2,…,yn-m)+yn-s),n∈ℕ0, withp≥0,r,q>0,s,m∈ℕand positive initial values, and present some sufficient conditions for the parameters and mapsϕn:(ℝ+)m→ℝ+,n∈ℕ0, under which every positive solution to the equation converges to zero or a unique positive equilibrium. Our main result in the paper extends some related results from the work of Gibbons et al. (2000), Iričanin (2007), and Stević (vol. 33, no. 12, pages 1767–1774, 2002; vol. 6, no. 3, pages 405–414, 2002; vol. 9, no. 4, pages 583–593, 2005). Besides, several examples and open problems are presented in the end.

Abstract We consider a Nicholson’s equation with multiple pairs of time-varying delays and nonlinear terms given by mixed monotone functions. Sufficient conditions for the permanence, local stability and global attractivity of its positive equilibrium K are established. The main novelty here is the construction of a suitable auxiliary difference equation x n+1 = h(x n ) with h having negative Schwarzian derivative, and its application to derive the attractivity of K for a model with one or more pairs of time-dependent delays. Our criteria depend on the size of some delays, improve results in recent literature and provide answers to open problems.

AbstractIn this paper, we study the oscillation behavior for higher order nonlinear Hilfer fractional difference equations of the type $$\begin{aligned}& \Delta _{a}^{\alpha ,\beta }y(x)+f_{1} \bigl(x,y(x+\alpha ) \bigr) =\omega (x)+f_{2} \bigl(x,y(x+ \alpha ) \bigr),\quad x\in \mathbb{N}_{a+n-\alpha }, \\& \Delta _{a}^{k-(n-\gamma )}y(x) \big|_{x=a+n-\gamma } = y_{k}, \quad k= 0,1,\ldots,n, \end{aligned}$$ Δ a α , β y ( x ) + f 1 ( x , y ( x + α ) ) = ω ( x ) + f 2 ( x , y ( x + α ) ) , x ∈ N a + n − α , Δ a k − ( n − γ ) y ( x ) | x = a + n − γ = y k , k = 0 , 1 , … , n , where $\lceil \alpha \rceil =n$ ⌈ α ⌉ = n , $n\in \mathbb{N}_{0}$ n ∈ N 0 and $0\leq \beta \leq 1$ 0 ≤ β ≤ 1 . We introduce some sufficient conditions for all solutions and give an illustrative example for our results.

A class of nonlinear delay difference equations are considered and some sufficient conditions for global attractivity of solutions of the equation are obtained. It is shown that the stability properties, both local and global, of the equilibrium of the delay equation can be derived from those of an associated nondelay equation.

We give sufficient conditions under which the unique positive equilibriumx-of that equation is globally asymptotically stable.

AbstractWe investigate the global asymptotic stability for positive solutions to a class of general symmetric rational difference equations and prove that the unique positive equilibrium 1 of the general symmetric rational difference equations is globally asymptotically stable. As a special case of our result, we solve the conjecture raised by Berenhaut, Foley and Stević [‘The global attractivity of the rational difference equationyn=(yn−k+yn−m)/(1+yn−kyn−m)’,Appl. Math. Lett.20(2007), 54–58].

Motivated by Iričanin and Stević's paper (2006) in which for the first time were considered some cyclic systems of difference equations, here we study the global attractivity of some nonlineark-dimensional cyclic systems of higher-order difference equations. To do this, we use the transformation method from Berenhaut et al. (2007) and Berenhaut and Stević (2007). The main results in this paper also extend our recent results in the work of (Liu and Yang 2010, in press).
