On the Global Attractivity of a Max‐Type Difference Equation

Abstract: We investigate asymptotic behavior and periodic nature of positive solutions of the difference equation , where and . We prove that every positive solution of this difference equation approaches or is eventually periodic with period 2.

“…x � max A 1/(1+α) , B 1/(1+β) , when p � 1, k � 2. In 2009, Gelisken [17] proved that every positive solution of equation (2) converges to x � 1 or, eventually, periodic with period 2, when p � 1, k � 3, α � 1, and B � 1. In addition, in 1999, Szalkai [18] studied the periodicity of solutions of the following difference equation:…”

“…Recently, so called, max-type difference equations have attracted some attention (see, for example, [6,17,20] and the references therein) because the max operator have great importance in automatic control models (see, [15,19]) and have wide applications in biology (see, [8]), ecology (see, [12,18]), and physics (see, [4,10]). However, the maxima operator is not a smooth function in n-dimensional real vector space so that the techniques which use derivatives could be of almost no use, so the study of max-type systems of difference equations become more difficult.…”
