AbstractIn this paper we give some theoretical explanations related to the representation for the general solution of the system of the higher-order rational difference equations$$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle x_{n+1} = \dfrac{1+2y_{n-k}}{3+y_{n-k}},\qquad y_{n+1} = \dfrac{1+2z_{n-k}}{3+z_{n-k}},\qquad z_{n+1} = \dfrac{1+2x_{n-k}}{3+x_{n-k}}, \end{array}$$where n, k∈ ℕ0, the initial values x−k, x−k+1, …, x0, y−k, y−k+1, …, y0, z−k, z−k+1, …, z1 and z0 are arbitrary real numbers do not equal −3. This system can be solved in a closed-form and we will see that the solutions are expressed using the famous Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.

In this paper, the derivation of irreducible bases for a class of isotropic 2 n th-order tensors having particular ‘minor symmetries’ is presented. The methodology used for obtaining these bases consists of extending the concept of deviatoric and spherical parts, commonly used for second-order tensors, to the case of an n th-order tensor. It is shown that these bases are useful for effecting the classical tensorial operations and especially the inversion of a 2 n th-order tensor. Finally, the formalism introduced in this study is applied for obtaining the closed-form expression of the strain field within a spherical inclusion embedded in an infinite elastic matrix and subjected to linear or quadratic polynomial remote strain fields.
