Abstract:

The main goal of this note is to introduce another second-order differenceequation where every nontrivial solution is of minimal period 5, namelythe difference equation:xn+1 =1 + xn−1xnxn−1 − 1, n = 1, 2, 3, . . .with initial conditions x0 and x1 any real numbers such that x0x1 6= 1.

FUZZY LOGISTIC DIFFERENCE EQUATION

In this study, we consider two different inequivalent formulations of the logistic difference equation $x_{n+1}= beta x_n(1- x_n), n=0,1,..., $ where $x_n$ is a sequence of fuzzy numbers and $beta$ is a positive fuzzy number. The major contribution of this paper is to study the existence, uniqueness and global behavior of the solutions for two corresponding equations, using the concept of Huku...

BEHAVIOR OF SOLUTIONS TO A FUZZY NONLINEAR DIFFERENCE EQUATION

In this paper, we study the existence, asymptotic behavior of the positive solutions of a fuzzy nonlinear difference equation$$ x_{n+1}=frac{Ax_n+x_{n-1}}{B+x_{n-1}}, n=0,1,cdots,$$ where $(x_n)$ is a sequence of positive fuzzy number, $A, B$ are positive fuzzy numbers and the initial conditions $x_{-1}, x_0$ are positive fuzzy numbers.

On a Difference-delay Equation

We investigate how the behaviour, especially at 1; of continuous real solutions f (t) to the equation f (t) = a 1 f (t + h 1) + a 2 f (t ? h 2); where a 1 ; a 2 ; h 1 ; h 2 are positive real constants, depends on the values of these parameters. Deenitive answers are given, except in certain cases when h 1 =h 2 is rational..

STUDYING THE BEHAVIOR OF SOLUTIONS OF A SECOND-ORDER RATIONAL DIFFERENCE EQUATION AND A RATIONAL SYSTEM

In this paper we investigate the behavior of solutions, stable and unstable of the solutions a second-order rational difference equation. Also we will discuss about the behavior of solutions a the rational system, we show these solutions may be stable or unstable.
