Reaction of N-(butoxymethyl)dialkylamines and N,N'-Methylenebis(dialkylamine)s with N-(1-cyclohexen-1-yl)dialkylamines.

On the nature of solutions of the difference equation $mathbf{x_{n+1}=x_{n}x_{n-3}-1}$

We investigate the long-term behavior of solutions of the difference equation[ x_{n+1}=x_{n}x_{n-3}-1 ,, n=0 ,, 1 ,, ldots ,, ]noindent where the initial conditions $x_{-3} ,, x_{-2} ,, x_{-1} ,, x_{0}$ are real numbers.  In particular, we look at the periodicity and asymptotic periodicity of solutions, as well as the existence of unbounded solutions.

Dynamics of higher order rational difference equation $x_{n+1}=(alpha+beta x_{n})/(A + Bx_{n}+ Cx_{n-k})$

The main goal of this paper is to investigate the periodic character, invariant intervals, oscillation and global stability and other new results of all positive solutions of the equation$$x_{n+1}=frac{alpha+beta x_{n}}{A + Bx_{n}+ Cx_{n-k}},~~ n=0,1,2,ldots,$$where the parameters $alpha$, $beta$, $A$, $B$ and $C$ are positive, and the initial conditions $x_{-k},x_{-k+1},ldots,x_{-1},x_{0}$ are...

On Conditional Inactivity Time of Failed Components in an (n-k+1)-out-of-n System with Nonidentical Independent Components

In this paper, we study an (n-k+1)-out-of-n system by adopting their components to be statistically independent though nonidentically distributed. By assuming that at least m components at a fixed time have failed while the system is still working, we obtain the mixture representation of survival function for a quantity called the conditional inactivity time of failed components in the system. ...
