We study the global stability, the periodic character, and the boundedness character of the positive solutions of the difference equation , , in the two cases: (i) ; (ii) , where the coefficients and, and the initial conditions are real numbers. We show that the positive equilibrium of this equation is a global attractor with a basin that depends on certain conditions posed on the coefficients of this equation.

Our aim in this paper is to investigate the convergence behavior of the positive solutions of a higher order fuzzy difference equation and show that all positive solutions of this equation converge to its unique positive equilibrium under appropriate assumptions. Furthermore, we give two examples to account for the applicability of the main result of this paper.

We consider the higher-order nonlinear difference equation with the parameters, and the initial conditions are nonnegative real numbers. We investigate the periodic character, invariant intervals, and the global asymptotic stability of all positive solutions of the above-mentioned equation. In particular, our results solve the open problem introduced by Kulenović and Ladas in their monograph (see Kulenović and Ladas, 2002).

We prove that all positive solutions of the autonomous difference equationxn=αxn−k/(1+xn−k+f(xn−1,…,xn−m)), n∈ℕ0, wherek,m∈ℕ, andfis a continuous function satisfying the conditionβ min{u1,…,um}≤f(u1,…,um)≤β max{u1,…,um}for someβ∈(0,1), converge to the positive equilibriumx¯=(α−1)/(β+1)ifα>1.
