Abstract

This work studies the boundedness and global attractivity for the positive solutions of the difference equation

with p,cset membership, variant(0,). It is shown that: (a) there exist unbounded solutions whenever p≥4, (b) all positive solutions are bounded when pset membership, variant(0,4), (c) every positive solution is eventually equal to 1 when pset membership, variant(0,4) and c≥1, (d) all positive solutions converge to 1 whenever p,cset membership, variant(0,1).

Keywords: Max type difference equations; Boundedness; Difference equation; Global attractivity
